When two objects collide, their total momentum does not change. The total momentum, before and after the collision, equals the sum of the objects' individual momenta. For each object, this momentum is the product of its mass and its velocity, measured in kilogram meters per second

The law of momentum conservation can be stated as follows. For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.
