I have been having a discussion of the conceptual explainations of energy and momentum with some other physics teachers. No one seems to be able to put into words the "conceptual differences" between these two quantities. We all resort to the mathematics to describe them. One is a vector, one is a scalar, etc. Does anyone have a way of describing the difference between these to students? Thanks, Bob Devantery New Hampshire
