40 km/h
ACTIVITY: WHAT AFFECTS MOTION?
Consider a cargo truck with a mass of
10,000 kilograms traveling at a velocity of
40 kilometers per hour and a small car
with a mass of 2000 kilograms traveling at
the same velocity as shown in Figure 1.
ACTIVITY: WHAT AFFECTS MOTION?
◾a vector quantity
◾SI unit is kilogram meters per
second or kg. m/s.
Momentum = mass x velocity or
p=mv
Where:
p= momentum
m = mass
v = velocity or speed
SAMPLE PROBLEM 1
m= 6.0 kg
v= 3.5 m / s
◾Find:
p= ?
◾Solution:
a=F/m
Summarizing equations for IMPULSE:
◾I=F⋅Δt
◾Ft = m(vf-vi)
◾Ft = Δp
IMPULSE
◾symbol I
◾Newton-seconds
N.s.
◾I=F⋅Δt.
L E T ’ S TRY THIS:
◾Ben Arda hits a 0.02 kg golf ball,
giving it a speed of 25 m / s . What
impulse does he impart to the ball?
Given:
m = 0.02 kg
Δv = 25 m / s – 0 = 25 m / s
Find: I
◾Solution:
Since the golf ball is initially at rest, the initial
velocity is equal to zero.
Thus,
I = Δp = mΔv
= (0.02 kg)(25 m/s)
= 0.50 kg-m/s or 0.50 Ns
SAMPLE PROBLEM 2
◾A cart is pushed with a force of 25 N in 4
seconds which caused it to move. What is the
impulse imparted on the cart?
ANSWER:
GIVEN: FIND: I
F =25 N
t =4 seconds
Formula: I =Ft
I =(25 N) (4s)
I =100 Ns or 100 kg. m/s
SAMPLE PROBLEM 3
◾How much force is needed to change the
speed of a 10.0 kg body from 20. 0 m/s to 12.0
m/s within 3s?
GIVEN: FIND: I
m =10.0 kg
vi =20.0 m/s
vf – 12.0 m/s
FORMULA: I =m (vf-vi)
I =10.0kg (12.0m/s – 20.0 m/s)
I =10.0kg (-8m/s)
I =-80 kg.m/s
APPLICATION: SEATBELT
◾When a vehicle
suddenly stops, it
experiences impulse,
change in momentum.
APPLICATION: SEATBELT
◾They are designed
to keep car
occupants inside
the car where it’s
likely to be safer
during a crash,
APPLICATION:SEATBELT
1. Elastic collision
- the total kinetic energy of the system does
not change and colliding objects bounce
off after the collision.
- An example is the balls in billiard games.
TWO T YP E S O F C O L L ISION
2. Inelastic collision
- the total kinetic energy of the system changes
or converted into another form of energy. Objects
that stick together after the collision are said to
be perfectly inelastic.
CAR A CAR B
2. Consider the two identical cars on the
left. Car A is traveling at 80 k m / h while
Car B is traveling at 30 k m / h . Which of
the two cars would be more difficult to
stop? Which of the two cars has more
momentum?
(8) , being faster, is more
difficult to stop. It has more momentum.
Two cars of the (9) mass but
different velocities will also have (10)
momenta.
