P= Mass x Velocity

What is the equation for momentum?

New cards
2

FΔT= P final - P Intial

What is the impulse equation?

New cards
3

Impulse

The product of the average force on an object and the time interval over which it acts

New cards
4

Newton-Seconds

What are the units for impulse?

New cards
5

Impulse-Momentum Theorem

An impulse of an object is equal to the objects final momentum minus the object's initial momentum.

New cards
6

Vector

Is impulse a vector or scalar?

New cards
7

Vector

Is momentum a vector or a scalar?

New cards
8

Closed System

A system which does not gain or lose mass

New cards
9

Isolated System

When the net external force exerted on a closed system is zero

New cards
10

Law of Consevation of Momentum

The momentum of any closed, isolated system does not change

New cards
11

To get these answers just multiply Mass x Velocity.

540 N/S Eastward

20,000 N/S Northward

80 N/S Southward

Example Momentum Math Problems:

Determine Momentum:

60- kg halfback moving eastward at 9 m/s?

1000-kg car moving northward at 20 m/s?

40-kg girl running soutward at 2 ms

I = Ft (80)(0.10) = 8N/s

A hockey player applies an average force of 80.0 N to a 0,25 kg hockey puck for a time of 0.10 seconds. Determine the impulse experienced by the hockey puck?

New cards
13

Unequal

Unequal masses will have _____________ accelerations.

New cards
14

Newton's Second Law

According to which one of Newtons Laws does unequal masses will have unequal accelerations.

New cards
15

Force Equal Least

In a collision, there is a ______ on both objects that causes an acceleration of both objects. The forces are _____ in magnitude and opposite in direction, yet the ________ massive object receives the greatest acceleration.

New cards
16

Conserved

In a system total momentum is ______________________--.

New cards
17

Lost Gained

The momentum ____________ by one object is equal to the momentum ____________ by the second object.

New cards
18

Mass Acceleration

Newton's second law says that the net force on an object is equal to its __________ times its _____________.

New cards
19

Momentum

An object's tendancy to remain in motion, but technically, it's an object's mass times its velocity.

New cards
20

Elastic Collision

In this type of collision, kenetic energy is conserved

New cards
21

Inelastic Collision

Kinetic energy is not conserved

New cards
22

Objects stick together

A perfeclty inelastic collision is what happens when ______________________________________.

New cards
23

Perfectly Inelastic Collision

These collisions lose as much kinetic energy as possible to other forms of energy, like heat, or sound, or even potential energy, but still, their momentum is conserved.

New cards
24

Center of Mass

The average position of all the mass in the system

New cards
25

0 It's zero because the woman is standing still so the velocity is zero.

If there is a 70 kg woman standing still what is the momentum?
