h2. Description and Assumptions
{excerpt}This model is [generally applicable|generally applicable model] (assuming knowledge of the external forces and system constituents).{excerpt}
h2. Problem Cues
This model is especially useful when describing the momentum of systems where external forces are absent (system momentum will be constant) or estimating the force in a process that occurs in a very short time interval as in collisions (impulse will be easier to determine than force).

h2. System
The system must be effectively composed of [point particles|point particle], though rigid bodies may be treated as point particles with positions specified by the center of mass positions of the rigid body when this model is used.

h2. Interactions
Only [external forces|external force] need be considered, since [internal forces|internal force] do not change the system's momentum.
