200

Momentum is a ______________ quantity with both magnitude and direction.

vector

200

True/False

For any collision occurring in an system, momentum is conserved.

True

200

Momentum of a 1000-kg car moving at 20 m/s NE.

20,000 kg*m/s NE

200


Which case has the greatest velocity change?

Case B

The velocity changes from +30 m/s to -28 m/s. This is a change of 58 m/s (-) and is greater than in case A (-15 m/s).

200

What is the equation for impulse?

J=F*\Delta t

300

p=m*?

Velocity

A large truck collides with a small bicycle.

Which vehicle experiences the greatest force of impact?

Both have the same

300

A car possesses 20,000 kg*m/s. What would be the car's new momentum if the velocity doubled?

40,000 kg*m/s

300


Which case has the biggest momentum change?

Case B, 

momentum change depends on velocity change

300

How is impulse related to momentum? 

J=F*\Delta t = \Delta p = m \Delta v

400

True/False

An object's momentum is indirectly proportional to an object's velocity (as one increases, the other decreases)

False

400

A large truck collides with a small bicycle.

Which vehicle experiences the largest change in momentum?

Both change momentum the SAME amount! (one increases momentum, other decreases by the same)

400

A car possesses 20 000 kg*m/s. What would be the car's new momentum if it brakes, applying a force of 100N over 10s. 

19,000 kg*m/s

400


Which case has the greatest change in velocity?

Case A

400

If you apply an impulse to an object what happens to the object's momentum?

It increases. 

500

For a given change momentum the change in velocity is related to the ___________ to an object's mass.

What is this relationship?

Inverse

{\Delta p}/{m}=\Delta v


500

A large truck collides with a small bicycle.

Which vehicle experiences the largest change in velocity?

The bicycle

Bicycle's mass is smaller so change in velocity must be greater

500

A 60 kg quarterback is running at 0.4 m/s down the field. A 90 kg halfback is running at 0.3 m/s down the field.

Which player has the most momentum?

The halfback

500


Which case has the greatest change in momentum?

Case A

500

Which has a greater impulse? A force of 35 newtons over 5.5 seconds? Or a force of 1.925*10^4 N over  1 ms ?

Neither, they are the same.
