A

Seconds

21
Q

A

ms^-2

22
Q

1 tonne =

A

1000kg

23
Q

What do you need to consider with problems considering a wall?

A

If you are doing a problem that is dealing with a ball bouncing off a wall you can’t really apply the impulse momentum principle to it.
You need to find the impulse exerted on the ball by the wall
And (due to newtons 3rd principle) you know that the force will ber equal and opposite

24
Q

What can you use to help solve collision problems?

A

The impulse momentum principle

25
Q

What is the conservation of momentum principle?

A

Total momentum before impact = total momentum after an impact

26
Q

How can you write the conservation of momentum in an equation?

A
27
Q

what is the best way to format a question when using the conservation of momentum?

A
28
Q

When using the conservation of momentum what do you need to remember to do?

A

Pick a positive direction

29
Q

If a question asks for the velocity, what do you need to remember to do?

A

State the velocity and the direction

30
Q

What is 1.3?

A

Everything is the same except you have vector values for momentum
