Reaction Time
By, Russell Dawkins
Reaction time is a physical phenomenon that can be calculated using the momentum principle.
The Main Idea
Your reaction time is how long it takes you to respond to an event. This can be measured one of two ways. One way to measure reaction times is given the distance that an object traveled since you reacted to it. Another application of this formula is to solve for the distance that the object caught travels based on how long it took to catch it.
A Mathematical Model
What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example [math]\displaystyle{ {\frac{d\vec{p}}{dt}}_{system} = \vec{F}_{net} }[/math] where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.
