Impulse and an example:

Impulse equation

Why is hard to measure magnitude of impulse force?

impulse: External resultant force acts on object for very short time and changes the object's motion.Example: Kicking a ball, Catching a ball, collision between two objects

Impulse product of force applied and the time for which it acts:
impulse = F ∆t

Force acting for short time, very difficult to directly measure magnitude of force/time for which it acts so is measured indirectly

How is impact forces reduced?

How is impact force reduced in sports - football?

After a strong kick the _______ from the foot is _____ to the ball so creates a ____ ______ and the ball has as _____ ____

Why do we bubble wrap packages and what does it help to do?

Impact forces reduced by increasing the contact time and is used in everyday life to lower the risk of injury

In football Increasing contact time is used as a advantage, so longer the contact time, the larger change in momentum

After a strong kick the momentum from the foot transferred to the ball creates a large impulse and the ball then has a  higher velocity

Packaging, fragile items, uses bubble wrap packaging to reduce the impact forces that items experience in transition and helps to cushion items by increasing time over which they experience a force, which reduces the risk of damage

What is always and not always conserved in explosions and collisions?

What is a collision/explosion that is elastic and a collision/explosion that is inelastic?

Both collisions and explosions, momentum is always conserved and Kinetic energy not always conserved

  • Collision/explosion is: elastic if kinetic energy is conserved, inelastic if kinetic energy is not conserved

  • Collisions when objects strike against each other:

  • Elastic collisions where the objects colliding don’t stick together and then move in opposite directions.

  • Inelastic collisions where objects collide and stick together after the collision

How is force of impact in a collision decreased?

What is some safety features?

What are safety features designed to do?

When increasing the time what does it reduce?

Force of impact in a vehicle collision decreased by increasing the contact time over which collision occurs

Vehicles safety features: crumple zonesseat belts and airbags

Force on impact, safety features designed to absorb energy from impact increasing time taken for the change in momentum of the passenger to occur

Increased time reduces the force exerted on the passenger and reduces the risk of injury

Designing safety features:

Vehicle safety features designed to ______ _______ impact by ______ ______

Seatbelts: passengers and what are they designed, what does it reduce?

Airbags: deployed from dashboard and steering when there is a collision and what does it act as, what does it increase?

Crumple zone: what is it designed to do and how and what does it reduce?

Vehicle safety features designed to absorb energy impact by changing shape

Seat belts: designed to stop passenger from colliding with interior of a vehicle by keeping them fixed to their seat in an abrupt stop

  • Designed to stretch slightly to increase the contact time over which passenger's momentum reaches 0 so reduces the force exerted on them during a collision

Airbags: deployed from dashboard and steering wheel when a collision occurs: acts as a soft cushion to prevent injury on the passenger when they are thrown forward upon impact

Increase contact time over which the passenger changes momentum, so reducing the force exerted on them

Crumple zones: designed into the exterior of vehicle, front and back designed to crush/crumple in a controlled in a collision

  • Vehicles after collision look more heavily damaged than expected, even for relatively small collisions

  • Crumple zones increase time which vehicle's momentum reaches 0, reducing the force on passengers
