Momentum and Impulse

Cards (14)

  • Thing to consider in momentum
    •has mass
    •object is moving
  • Formula of momentun
    P=mv
  • What do you call the change of momentum?
    Impluse
  • Force is needed toto change the momentum
  • Bodies changes their momentum thought collision
  • The force of impact is directly proportional to the momentum and inversely to the time of contact
  • If the object has the same mass and speed there is no momentun
  • In close and isolates system, the total momentum of an object before and after the collition is equal
    Law of Conservation
  • Momentum cannot lost when collition happen but only transfered
  • When two objects with different masses are moving at the same velocity they have the same momentum
  • The amount of force applied to otherother is ewual to the amount of force you feel
  • In any collision, there must be conservation of linear momentum but this can express itself in a variety of ways depending on the type of collision
  • Elastic Collision -One in which the total kinetic energy of the system does not change , and colliding object bounce off after collision
  • One in which the total kinetic energy of the system changes. Object that are stick together after collistion is perfect elastic
    Inelastic collision
