6. Newton’s second law Newton’s second law can be stated in two ways: The net force acting on an object is the: The net force acting on an object is the: Product of the mass of the object by the acceleration. Product of the mass of the object by the acceleration. Rate at which the momentum of the object is changing with time. Rate at which the momentum of the object is changing with time.

11. Impulse

12. Impulse from Force-Time graph The impulse imparted by a force during the time interval Δt is equal to the area under the force-time graph from the beginning to the end of the time interval The impulse imparted by a force during the time interval Δt is equal to the area under the force-time graph from the beginning to the end of the time interval Or, to the average force multiplied by the time interval Or, to the average force multiplied by the time interval The average force can be thought of as the constant force that would give the same impulse to the object in the time interval as the actual time-varying force gives in the interval The average force can be thought of as the constant force that would give the same impulse to the object in the time interval as the actual time-varying force gives in the interval

13. Test your Knowledge! A ball of mass 0.250 kg moves on a frictionless horizontal floor and hits a vertical wall with speed of 5.00 m.s -1. The ball rebounds with speed 4.0 m.s -1. If the ball was in contact with wall for 0.15 s: A ball of mass 0.250 kg moves on a frictionless horizontal floor and hits a vertical wall with speed of 5.00 m.s -1. The ball rebounds with speed 4.0 m.s -1. If the ball was in contact with wall for 0.15 s: Determine the average force that acted on the ball. Determine the average force that acted on the ball. The force is assumed to vary with time as shown. Deduce the maximum force that acted on the ball The force is assumed to vary with time as shown. Deduce the maximum force that acted on the ball

14. Impulse Applied to Auto Collisions The most important factor is the collision time or the time it takes the person to come to a rest The most important factor is the collision time or the time it takes the person to come to a rest This will reduce the chance of dying in a car crash This will reduce the chance of dying in a car crash Ways to increase the time Ways to increase the time Seat belts Seat belts Air bags Air bags

15. Air Bags The air bag increases the time of the collision The air bag increases the time of the collision It will also absorb some of the energy from the body It will also absorb some of the energy from the body It will spread out the area of contact It will spread out the area of contact decreases the pressure decreases the pressure helps prevent penetration wounds helps prevent penetration wounds
