  • To stop an object, we have to apply a force over a period of time.
    Impulse
  • Impulse = FΔt Units: N∙s
  • F = force (N)
  • Δt = time elapsed (s)
  • FΔt= mΔv means?
    Impulse = change in momentum
  • What is Momentum?
    A symbol “p”, which measures how hard it is to stop a moving object.
  • Momentum can be defined as?
    mass in motion
  • Momentum depends upon 2 variables:
    Mass & Velocity
  • Formula for momentum
    Momentum = mass x velocity / p = m x v
  • p = momentum (kg . m/s)
  • m = mass (kg)
  • v = velocity (m/s)
  • An object’s momentum will change if its mass and/or velocity (speed and direction) changes.
  • To find momentum, p = m . v

    Unit: kg . m/s
  • To find velocity, v = p/m
    Unit: m/s
  • To find mass, m = p/v
    Unit: kg
  • Mathematically;
    M1V1+M2V2= M1V1’+M2V2’
  • M1 = mass of the first object in kilogram (kg);
  • V1 = velocity of the first object before collision in meter per second (m/s);
  • M2 = mass of the second object in kilogram (kg);
  • V2 = velocity of the second object before collision in meter per sec (m/s);
  • V1’ = is the velocity of object 1 after collision
  • V2’ = is the velocity of object 2 after collision
  • M1’= is the first object’s mass after collision
  • M2’= is the second object’s mass after collision
  • The momentum of an object depends upon the object's ___________&_____________.
    mass and velocity
  • Momentum is a ____________________ quantity
    vector
  • What is the definition of momentum?
    Mass in Motion
  • What is the definition of impulse?
    The time integral of net force that causes change in momentum
  • Impulse is represented by which symbol?
    I and J
  • All of the following are examples of impulse except.
    A car moving with constant speed
    B. A tennis ball hitting a racket
    C. A pencil getting stuck to the ceiling
    D. A hammer bouncing of a nail
  • During a collision. An object experiences an impulse. How can this impulse be calculated?
    Multiplying force by time
  • Which of the following does the impulse-momentum equation implies?
    It states that the change in momentum = impulse
  • The impulse-momentum theorem states that?
    The impulse on an object is equal to the change in momentum it causes
  • T/F
    Momentum can be transferred from one object to another.
    True
  • T/F
    All moving objects don’t have momentum.
    False
  • T/F
    The momentum of an object can change
    True
  • T/F
    Direction does not matter when you are measuring momentum.
    False
  • T/F
    When an object speeds up, it gains momentum.
    True
  • T/F
    A tiny bullet can have more momentum than a huge truck.
    True
