Calling Sequence
LinearMomentum[A,B]
Parameters
A: name of defined observer
B: name of defined point
Description
The function LinearMomentum returns the linear momentum of a rigid body with reference point B relative to the observer A.
The linear momentum is expressed using the symbol M for the total mass of the body.
Remember to invoke DeclareStates prior to using LinearMomentum.
