1-15A
What is the momentum
of a 0.520-kg
object moving at a velocity of 14 m/s?

What is the total momentum
of the following
1-25
situation? Assume there is no friction.
2 kg
1.5 m/s
0.8 m/s
3 kg
What is the total momentum
1-25A of the following
situation? Assume there is no friction.
2 kg
1.5 m/s
0.8 m/s
3 kg
Momentum of LH-cart = (2 kg)(1.5 m/s) = + 3 kg m/s
Momentum of RH-cart = (3 kg)(- 0.8 m/s) = - 2.4 kg m /s
Total Momentum = + 3 kg m/s – 2.4 kg m/s
= 0.6 kg m/s

What is the change in momentum of a
soccer ball that is kicked with a force
of 75-N over a time of 0.18 seconds?
2-15A
What is the change in momentum of a
soccer ball that is kicked with a force
of 75-N over a time of 0.18 seconds?
Change in momentum = impulse = F t
F t = (75 N)(0.18 s)
F t = 13.5 N s

A 1,000 kg rocket is launched
from rest to a
speed of 2500 m/s in a time of 2.5 minutes.
What was the average force (in Newtons)
exerted on the rocket?
A 1,000 kg rocket is2-25A
launched from rest to a
speed of 2500 m/s in a time of 2.5 minutes.
What was the average force (in Newtons)
exerted on the rocket?
Change in momentum = Impulse
∆m v = F t ==> F = m (vf – vi) / t
F = (1000 kg)(2500 m/s - 0 m/s )/(150 s)
F = 16,667 N

Why is it safer to stop an out-ofcontrol car by running into a pond
versus hitting a concrete wall?
3-15A
Why is it safer to stop an out-ofcontrol car by running into a pond
versus hitting a concrete wall?
By running into the pond, the time it
takes the car to slow down to a stop is
lengthened. Therefore the stopping
force is decreased.
3-20 collision is more
Why is it that a bouncing
damaging than a sticking collision (assuming
the same time of impact in each case)?
3-20A collision is more
Why is it that a bouncing
damaging than a sticking collision (assuming
the same time of impact in each case)?
A bouncing collision is more damaging
because the change in velocity, and
therefore the change in momentum, is
greater. This leads to a larger force.
A 0.25 kg ball is hit by 3-25
a stick - the incoming
velocity of the ball is +25 m/sec and the outgoing
velocity is - 20 m/sec. If the time of contact is
0.078 sec, what was the force of impact?

velocity of the ball is +25 m/sec and the outgoing

0.078 sec, what was the force of impact?
Impulse = Change in Momentum
F t = m v ==> F = m (vf – vi) / t
F = (0.25 kg)(-20 m/s - 25 m/s)/(0.078 s)
F = -144.2 N
When an asteroid 4-5
collides with the
Moon, the Moon drastically changes
the momentum of the asteroid. By
how much does the Moon change its
momentum?
When an asteroid4-5A
collides with the
Moon, the Moon drastically changes
the momentum of the asteroid. By
how much does the Moon change its
momentum?
Precisely the same amount

A firecracker is sitting
on the ground when
it is lit. After the explosion, what is the
total momentum of the pieces flying away?
4-10A
A firecracker is sitting
on the ground when
it is lit. After the explosion, what is the
total momentum of the pieces flying away?
Zero!!!
…because the momentum of the firecracker
before the explosion was zero, and
momentum must be conserved.

Momentum of LH-cart = (3 kg)(2.5 m/s) = +7.5 kg m/s
Momentum of RH-cart = (2 kg)(-1.8 m/s) = -3.6 kg m/s
Total Momentum = +3.9 kg m/s
After collision ==> 3.9 kg m/s = (5 kg)v
v = (3.9 kg m/s)/(5 kg) = +0.78 m/s
