Momentum describes the _______ of an object. 

Movement

What will cause a change in an object's momentum? 

An applied force

True or False: Not every collision follows the conservation of momentum

False

A system will have the same momentum before a collision as it does after a collision. What law is this? 

Law of Conservation of Momentum

100

Coulomb's Law tells us that the closer two oppositely charged objects are, the stronger their attractive force will be. What everyday object can we demonstrate this with? 

Magnets

200

What equation is used to solve for momentum? 

p=mv

200

The change in an object's momentum depends on the magnitude of the force applied, as well as: 

the length of time the force is applied

200

In which type of collision will objects "bounce" off one another, moving separately after the collision? 

Elastic

200

What equation do we use to solve for a conservation of momentum problem? 

200

In any form of diffusion/particle movement, particles move from areas of ________ pressure/concentration to areas of ________ pressure/concentration

high, low

300

The OFFICIAL unit for momentum (not the one we made up) is what? 

kg * m/s

300

What equation is used for the impulse-momentum theorem? 

Ft=(delta)mv

300

Why are most elastic collisions not perfectly elastic? 

Kinetic energy is often transformed into heat or sound energy

300

Why does it make sense that kinetic energy and momentum are similar? 

Both require movement

This effect explains why an ambulance siren or a train horn will begin to sound lower pitched as it passes by you. 

Doppler Effect

400

What will cause a change in momentum? 

Applied force
400

The unit for impulse is a: (Hint: what do you multiply together to find impulse?) 

Newton-second

400

In a perfectly inelastic equation, what will happen to the colliding objects? 

They will "stick" together

400

Which of Newton's Laws also describes conservation of momentum? 

Third law

400

Antimatter is composed of antiparticles that share the same mass as their counterparts, but have the opposite charge.  What would the antimatter version of the Hydrogen ion be? 

H-

500
The momentum of an object is directly proportional to the object's: 

mass AND velocity

500

How could a small force result in a large change in momentum? 

By increasing the amount of time that force is applied
500

What is different between the equation used in the law of conservation of momentum, and the one used for a perfectly inelastic collision? 

Solving for just one final velocity in an inelastic equation

Matthew stands on a skateboard and throws a ball.  Which direction will Matthew move to conserve momentum? 

Opposite direction of the ball

500

Are you color blind?  Let's see. What number is in the circle? 

45

600

This class has assigned what unit to momentum? 

Pillars

600

Give a real-life example of impulse being used to slow down an object's momentum while decreasing the impact of force.

An ice skater in motion collides with another ice skater standing on the ice.  What kind of collision would this be? 

Inelastic

600

How was the law of conservation of momentum still followed when your eggs collided with the ground? 

Momentum was still conserved, however the mass of Earth is so large, we are unable to feel any change in its velocity when small objects collide with it.
