1. The momentum of an object depends upon the object's ________. Pick two quantities.
a. mass - how much stuff it has
b. acceleration - the rate at which the stuff changes its velocity
c. weight - the force by which gravity attracts the stuff to Earth
d. velocity - how fast and in what direction it's stuff is moving e. position - where the stuff is at
2. Momentum is a ____________ quantity. a. scalar b. vector 3. Which are complete descriptions of the momentum of an object? Circle all that apply. a. 2.0 kg/s b. 7.2 kg•m/s, right c. 6.1 kg•m/s2, down d. 4.2 m/s, east e. 1.9 kg•m/s, west f. 2.3 kg•m/s
4. The two quantities needed to calculate an object's momentum are __________ and ___________.
5. Consider the mass and velocity values of Objects A and B below.
Compared to Object B, Object A has ____ momentum.
a. two times the b. four times the
c. eight times the d. the same
e. one-half the f. one-fourth the
g. ... impossible to tell without knowledge of the F and a.6. Calculate the momentum value of ... . (Include appropriate units on your answers.) a. ... a 2.0-kg brick moving through the air at 12 m/s. b. ... a 3.5-kg wagon moving along the sidewalk at 1.2 m/s.
7. With what velocity must a 0.53-kg softball be moving to equal the momentum of a 0.31-kg baseball moving at 21 m/s? Impulse and Momentum Change
8. Insert these words into the four blanks of the sentence: mass, momentum,
acceleration, time, impact, weight, impulse, and force. (Not every
word will be used.)
In a collision, an object experiences a(n) __________________ acting for a
certain amount of ____________________ and which is known as a(n)
_______________ ; it serves to change the ________________ of the object.9. A(n) _________________ causes and is equal to a change in momentum. a. force b. impact c. impulse d. collision
10. Calculate the impulse experienced by .... . (Show appropriate units on your answer.) a. ... a 65.8-kg halfback encountering a force of 1025 N for 0.350 seconds. b. ... a 0.168-kg tennis ball encountering a force of 126 N that changes its velocity by 61.8 m/s.
11. Determine the impulse (I), momentum change (Δp), momentum (p) and other values.
A 7-ball collides with the 8-ball. A moving medicine ball is caught by a girl on ice skates.
A tennis ball is at rest when it experiences a forward force to set it in motion. It then strikes a wall where it encounters a force that slows it down and finally turns it around and sends it backwards.
