Science 9 Impulse Momentum Q4 Wk2
FACT
BLUFF
The trajectory of a projectile is
parabolic.
The curve-like path undertake
by a projectile is called trajectory.
Projectile motion is composed of
both horizontal and vertical
motion.
As the projectile reaches the
maximum height it momentarily
stops.
As a projectile reaches to the
ground its vertical velocity
decreases.
In angle-launched projectile, as
the projectile rises its vertical
velocity increases.
Momentum and
Impulse
What is Momentum ?
One of the most common team sports is basketball.
Imagine two teams who are involved in a really tight
tournament quarterfinals. Team A has 2 pts ahead of
Team B. Later on in the match, a player from Team
B scores a three-point shot and followed by a series
of 2-point shots from the said team. Team B couldn’t
stop their momentum. What do you mean by
Momentum?
In the example above, these are the things we need
to consider in defining momentum:
a. The object has a mass
b. The object is moving
What is Momentum ?
Any moving object with a quantity of matter has
momentum. Momentum simply means "mass in
motion." It is equal to the product of mass and
velocity.
What is Momentum ?
If any object of any mass is not moving, it has zero
momentum since its velocity is zero. Let us first
consider the situation below and try to answer the
given questions.
A
1. Greater force is needed to stop car ___
because it has higher inertia.
A
2. Bodies with higher momentum like car ____
is more difficult to stop.
CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING
Direction: Two cars of different masses are moving at the same velocities.
Complete each of the following statements by identifying the correct car
being described.
The above equation shows that the impact force of a fast-moving car is
higher and therefore it can cause greater damage after the collision than
the car moving at a lower velocity. On the other hand, the equation tells
us that the impact force could be decreased by extending the time of
contact.
Impulse & Momentum
Think about riding in an out-of-control car. Would you
prefer hitting a haystack or a brick wall? Your
knowledge of physics will help you save your life.

1.I am a gymnast. I need to _____
when landing from a certain height to ________
increase
reducing
the time of contact with the floor thus _______
the force of impact. (reducing, increase, bend)

can lessen or prevent injuries in the event of crash
or collision. The inflation of the airbag is initiated by
decreases the impact force
crash sensors. This ________
by _______
increasing the time of contact. (airbags,

DECREASING FORCE
• If the time of impact is increased by 100 times
(from .01 sec to 1 sec), then the force of impact is
reduced by 100 times
• EXAMPLES :
• Padded dashboards on cars
• Airbags in cars or safety nets in circuses
• Moving your hand backward as you catch a fast-moving ball
with your bare hand or a boxer moving with a punch.
• Flexing your knees when jumping from a higher place to the
ground. or elastic cords for bungee jumping
• Using wrestling mats instead of hardwood floors.
• Dropping a glass dish onto a carpet instead of a sidewalk.
EXAMPLES OF DECREASING
MOMENTUM
• Manny Pacquio on boxing … Ft = change in
momentum
Ft = change in
momentum
• Increased impact time reduces force of impact
• Bungee jumping provides another example
MOMENTUM
• An object at rest has no momentum, why?
• (the velocity component is zero for an object at rest)
• To INCREASE MOMENTUM,
apply the greatest force possible for as long
as possible.
• Examples :
• pulling a sling shot
• drawing an arrow in a bow all the way back
• a long cannon for maximum range
• hitting a golf ball or a baseball

COLLISIONS
• ELASTIC COLLISIONS
Momentum transfer from one Object to another. The
total kinetic energy of the system does not change.
