They were so focused on their own individual work, they didn't even know who they were sitting next to, and it was only when I insisted that we stop working and invest time in getting to know each other that we achieved real momentum.

Social capital is what gives companies momentum, and social capital is what makes companies robust.

Now we need everybody, because it is only when we accept that everybody has value that we will liberate the energy and imagination and momentum we need to create the best beyond measure.

JG: And lastly, here's Destin, from "Smarter Every Day," talking about the conservation of angular momentum, and, since it's YouTube, cats: (Video) Hey, it's me, Destin.

For instance, let me reword this question: How does a cat go from feet-up to feet-down in a falling reference frame, without violating the conservation of angular momentum?

It's an issue for all of us, and it's an issue where we need more and more momentum.

I recall very much the Climate March last September, and that was a huge momentum, not just in New York, but all around the world.

And that won't happen unless we have the momentum from people around the world who say: "We want action now, we want to change course, we want a safe world, a safe world for future generations, a safe world for our children and our grandchildren, and we're all in this together."

But you bring to a crisis the person you already are, including the, yes, momentum that you've learned to invoke through passionate caring and through action, both of which require but also create energy.

At that moment, we talk about momentum.

So I was sitting there, all of a sudden, at this moment, talking about momentum, we are, at that moment, one of my wonderful donors called me about a report.

LD: One of the key factors in this equality movement is momentum, momentum as more and more people embrace their full selves and use whatever opportunities they have to change their part of the world, and momentum as more and more countries find models of equality in one another.

This is called the conservation of angular momentum.

Mathematically, angular momentum is a product of two numbers, one that gives the spin rate and one that gives the distance of the mass from the axis.

Wavelength is essential for quantum physics because an object's wavelength is related to its momentum, mass times velocity.

A fast-moving object has lots of momentum, which corresponds to a very short wavelength.

A heavy object has lots of momentum even if it's not moving very fast, which again means a very short wavelength.

So, if we have a pure wave, we can measure its wavelength, and thus its momentum, but it has no position.

We can know a particles position very well, but it doesn't have a wavelength, so we don't know its momentum.

To get a particle with both position and momentum, we need to mix the two pictures to make a graph that has waves, but only in a small area.

That's a quantum object with both wave and particle nature, but to accomplish this, we had to lose certainty about both position and momentum.

There's a good probability of finding it within some range of the center of the wave packet, and we made the wave packet by adding lots of waves, which means there's some probability of finding it with the momentum corresponding to any one of those.

Both position and momentum are now uncertain, and the uncertainties are connected.

If you want to reduce the position uncertainty by making a smaller wave packet, you need to add more waves, which means a bigger momentum uncertainty.

If you want to know the momentum better, you need a bigger wave packet, which means a bigger position uncertainty.

We don't see these wave properties for everyday objects because the wavelength decreases as the momentum increases.

Napoléon seemingly unstoppable momentum would die in the Russian winter snows, along with most of his army.

But despite all of this momentum, we face some huge challenges.

But it was a cultural momentum.

It was a radical transformation, but it was built by a cultural momentum.
