1 Momentum and Collisions

2 Momentum The linear momentum of an object of mass m moving with a velocity v is the product of the mass and the velocity. The linear momentum of an object of mass m moving with a velocity v is the product of the mass and the velocity. Momentum = mass X velocity Momentum = mass X velocity p=mv p=mv Units kg ● m/s Units kg ● m/s

3 Momentum Practice A 2250 kg pickup truck has a velocity of 25 m/s to the east. What is the momentum of the truck? A 2250 kg pickup truck has a velocity of 25 m/s to the east. What is the momentum of the truck? Given: m=2250 kg Given: m=2250 kg v= 25 m/s v= 25 m/s p=mv 2250kg x 25 m/s= p=mv 2250kg x 25 m/s= 5.6x10 4 kg ● m/s 5.6x10 4 kg ● m/s

4 Changing Momentum A change in momentum takes force and time A change in momentum takes force and time F=m(Δv/Δt) F=m(Δv/Δt) Newtons original formula Newtons original formula F=Δp/Δt F=Δp/Δt Δp=mv f -mv i Δp=mv f -mv i Force= change in momentum during time interval Force= change in momentum during time interval

5 Impulse Impulse is the force for the time interval. Impulse is the force for the time interval. Impulse-momentum theorem is the expression FΔt= Δp Impulse-momentum theorem is the expression FΔt= Δp If you extend the time of impact you reduce the amount of force. If you extend the time of impact you reduce the amount of force.

6 Force and Impulse A 1400 kg car moving westward with a velocity of 15 m/s collides with a utility pole and is brought to rest in.30 s. Find the force exerted on the car during the collision. A 1400 kg car moving westward with a velocity of 15 m/s collides with a utility pole and is brought to rest in.30 s. Find the force exerted on the car during the collision. Given m=1400 kg, Δt=.30 s Given m=1400 kg, Δt=.30 s v f =0 m/s v i =15 m/s v f =0 m/s v i =15 m/s What formula can I use? What formula can I use?

7 Impulse-Momentum FΔt= Δp FΔt= Δp Δp=mv f -mv i Δp=mv f -mv i FΔt=mv f -mv I am looking for force FΔt=mv f -mv I am looking for force F=mv f -mv/ Δt Now I just plug in my numbers F=mv f -mv/ Δt Now I just plug in my numbers (1400*0-1400*-15)/.30= 7.0*10 4 N to the east (1400*0-1400*-15)/.30= 7.0*10 4 N to the east

8 Stopping Distance A 2240 kg car traveling west slows down uniformly from 20.0 m/s to 5.0 m/s How long does it take the car to decelerate if the force on the car is 8410 to the east? How far does the car travel during the deceleration? A 2240 kg car traveling west slows down uniformly from 20.0 m/s to 5.0 m/s How long does it take the car to decelerate if the force on the car is 8410 to the east? How far does the car travel during the deceleration?

9 What am I given? M= 2240 kg M= 2240 kg v i = 20.0 m/s to the west = -20.0 m/s v i = 20.0 m/s to the west = -20.0 m/s v f = 5.0 m/s to the west = -5.0 m/s v f = 5.0 m/s to the west = -5.0 m/s F= 8410 N to the east so it stays positive F= 8410 N to the east so it stays positive Unknown Δt and Δx Unknown Δt and Δx

10 Impulse Momentum Theorem FΔt= Δp FΔt= Δp Δp=mv f -mv i Δp=mv f -mv i Δt=mv f -mv i /F Δt=mv f -mv i /F ((2240*-5)-(2240*-20))/8410 ((2240*-5)-(2240*-20))/8410 Δt=4.0s Δt=4.0s

11 Displacement of the vehicle To find the change in distance To find the change in distance Average velocity= change in d/change in t Average velocity= change in d/change in t Average velocity =(initial +final)/2 Average velocity =(initial +final)/2 Since these are equal I can combine them Since these are equal I can combine them Δx/Δt=(v f + v i )/2 Δx/Δt=(v f + v i )/2 Solving for x=((v f + v i )/2) *Δt Solving for x=((v f + v i )/2) *Δt x=((-20+-5)/2)*4 x=((-20+-5)/2)*4 x=-50 so it would be 50m to the west x=-50 so it would be 50m to the west

12 Conservation Of Momentum When I have two objects A and B When I have two objects A and B p(A i )+p(B i )=p(A f )+p(B f ) p(A i )+p(B i )=p(A f )+p(B f ) Total initial momentum=total final momentum Total initial momentum=total final momentum

13 Conservation of Momentum A 76 kg boater, initially at rest in a stationary 45 kg boat, steps out of the boat and onto the dock. If the boater moves out of the boat with a velocity of 2.5 m/s to the right what is the final velocity of the boat? A 76 kg boater, initially at rest in a stationary 45 kg boat, steps out of the boat and onto the dock. If the boater moves out of the boat with a velocity of 2.5 m/s to the right what is the final velocity of the boat? Given: m of person= 76 kg v i =0 m/s,v f =2.5 to the right Given: m of person= 76 kg v i =0 m/s,v f =2.5 to the right m of boat= 45 kg v i =0 v f =? m of boat= 45 kg v i =0 v f =?

14 m 1 v 1i +m 2 v 2i =m 1 v 1f +m 2 v 2f Because the boater and the boat are initially at rest m 1 v 1i + m 2 v 2i =0 Rearrange to solve for final velocity of boat v 2f = (-m 1 /m 2 )/v 1f -76/45 * 2.5=4.2 to the right -4.2
