New cards

momentum

mass x velocity - kgm/s

<p>mass x velocity - kgm/s</p>
2
New cards

conservation of momentum

in an isolated system

the total momentum beforea collision = the total momentum after a collision

3
New cards

equation for force with cahnge in momentum

this shows that the force decreases with a increase in the time

therefore with same change of momentum we can reduce the force experienced

how does car safety utilise the equation for forece with change in momentum

rely on use of crumple zones - airbags, seatbelts

5
New cards

impulse

the change of momentum of an object when the object is acted upon by a force for an interval of time

<p>the change of momentum of an object when the object is acted upon by a force for an interval of time</p>

New cards

force - time graphs

area under graph is the impulse
