| The momentum principle describes how the momentum of a system will change as a result of external forces. It is a vector principle as it describes how an system will move in three dimensions. | **The momentum principle describes how the momentum of a system will change as a result of external forces.** It is a vector principle as it describes how an system will move in three dimensions. |

| The energy principle describes how the energy of a system will change as a result of external work and energy exchange due to a temperature difference. It is a scalar principle as it describes how energy is transferred in and out as well as around a system in different forms. | **The energy principle describes how the energy of a system will change as a result of external work and energy exchange due to a temperature difference.** It is a scalar principle as it describes how energy is transferred in and out as well as around a system in different forms. |
