  • A 0.25kg cart moving at 0.4m/s. How much momentum the cart get?
    0.1 kg-m/s
  • Mary noticed a collision outside the coffee shop where two cars collided and stuck together. What type of collision did Mary observe?
    Perfectly Inelastic Collision
  • KE converted into what in INELASTIC COLLISION?
    Sound, thermal energy, and can change shape.
  • The momentum conserved in which collision?
    Inelastic, elastic, and perfectly inelastic
  • What type of a collision where momentum is conserved, KE is not conserved, and the objects bounce off each other?
    Inelastic Collision
  • After the two American football players collide they will stick together or bounce away?
    Stick together
  • What type of collision of this picture?
    Perfectly Inelastic Collision.
  • If a 70kg man and a 40kg boy are both running at the same velocity which is 5m/s, who has more momentum?
    The 70kg man
  • Momentum is defined as? (formula)
    Mass times the velocity.
  • What do we call it when two or more moving objects exert forces on each other for a short period of time?
    Collision
  • This is formula of what?
    Elastic Collision
  • What are the units for momentum?
    kg*m/s
  • How fast dose a bowling ball has to travel to transfer 140kg*m/s of momentum to the pins if the ball has a mass of 4kg?
    35 m/s
  • The law of conservation of momentum states what?
    Momentum is conserved. p before is the same as p after.
  • Two cars collide, lock bumpers, and move together after the collision. What kind of collision is this?
    Perfectly Inelastic Collision
  • What is the mass of an orange that’s moving at a speed of 3 m/s and has a momentum of 33.6kg*m/s?
    11.2kg
  • What is the momentum of a motorcycle travelling at 30m/s if it has a mass of 800kg?
    24000 kg*m/s
  • How can the effect of catching a slow, heavy object be the same as catching a fast, lightweight object?
    They have the same momentum.
  • What is the momentum of a baseball that has a mass of 0.7kg and is thrown with a velocity of 15m/s?
    10.5 kg*m/s
  • If 2 objects collide and stick together, what will happen to their velocities?
    Velocities will decrease
  • If a skydiver hits the ground with a momentum of 868 kg*m/s and was travelling at a speed of 14 m/s before impact, how much mass does the skydiver has?
    62kg

    3 types
  • Momentum is a what quantity?
    Vector quantity
