"Collisions" Java applet Applet to model elastic and inelastic collisions, from Walter Fendt's suite of Java applets.  Load the applet from our server here, or visit Walter Fendt's site here.

Elastic collision momentum calculator. Good (lazy!) way to put together momentum problems for worksheets or examples.  Click here to load the applet. DP, July 2013
Inelastic collision problems A few simple problems involving collisions and explosions.  This version has the answers included. PHS
Momentum problems These problems are used in Task 4 of the lesson plan.  They are mixed momentum problems, which have been edited for use with student studying momentum at Key Stage 4.  This version has selected answers included. DP, Feb 2013
Momentum practice problems I found these mixed momentum problems online.  They came from www.physicsclassroom.com, which has worked solutions for each problem, as well as numerous animations and other useful resources. DP, July 2013
Momentum and Impulse problems These problems deal with impulse, and go outside the confines of the AQA specification - but I have included them here ready for the next change of specification / exam board...! DP, July 2013
IOP Momentum and Impulse problems These problems, designed for the IB course, cover a range of ideas about momentum and impulse.  They are from the momentum section of the IOP website, which of course has lots of other useful resources too! DP, July 2013

  This website details a very cool momentum experiment using happy and sad balls.  You can also find a copy of this info as a word document here. DP
