100

A measure of an objects motion and how likely the object will stay in motion

What is momentum?

100

an 18,000kg transport truck is travelling east at 80km/h. Calculate the momentum of the truck.

p = 400,000kg*m/s

100

What is the formula for momentum?

momentum = mass x velocity

100

This law states total momentum before and after a collision remains the same in a closed system

What is the law of conservation of energy?
100

A change in momentum is called this.

What is impulse?
200

A push or pull on an object

What is a force?

200

A soccer player kicks a ball with a force of 60kg*m/sfor 3 seconds. The impulse on the ball is this.

Impulse = 180 kg*m/s

200

What is the formula for impulse?

Impulse = force x time

200

If the total momentum before the collision is 1234kg*m/s, what is the total momentum after the collision?

1234kg*m/s

200

Two identical cars collide at the same velocity. Car 1 has its mass doubled and collides again. What happens to Car 1's momentum in the second trial compared to the first?

Car 1's momentum is doubled

300

Brakes work by using __________

What is friction?

300

Before the collision, Car 1 has a mass of 12kg and a velocity of 24m/s, and car 2 has a mass of 15kg and a velocity of 3m/s. What is their total momentum before they collide?

p = 333kg*m/s

300

What is the formula for force?

mass x change in velocity

If two identical carts moving toward each other at equal speeds collide, the total momentum of the system is this

What is zero?

300

What is Ms. MacKenzie's favourite color?

Green!

400

The combination of size of the size of the force and time during which the force acts is called _________

What is impulse?

400

If a 1200 car increases its velocity by 20km/h, what is its momentum?

p = 24000kg*km/h

400

What is the formula for conservation of momentum?

total momentum before = total momentum after

400

If the stopping time of a collision increases but impulse stays the same, the force will do this.

What is decrease?

400

What direction will the objects move after the collision?

To the right (+)

500

A truck moving slowly can still have large momentum because it has a very large ________

What is mass?

500

A 2kg ball speeds up from 3 m/s to 9m/s in 3 seconds. The force applied to the ball is this.

Force = 4kg*m/s2

500

Force is written using these units

What is kg x m/s2?

500

Catching a baseball by moving your glove backward reduces injury because it increases this.

What is stopping time?

500

A test vehicle originally has mass m and speed v. In a second test, its mass doubles and its velocity doubles. How does the vehicle's momentum change?

It quadruples or is four times greater.
