Science Flashcards
product of mass and velocity
Momentum
Momentum equation
p=mv
As more mass of the object, the
difficult to stop
when 2 objects collide each other
collision
type of collisions when bounce off
elastic
type of collision when they stick together
inelastic
elastic formula
m1 v1 + m2 v2 = (m1 v1’) + (m2 v2’)
inelastic formula
m1 v1 + m2 v2 = (m1 + m2) V’
states that the total momentum of more objects acting upon each other are not change
Law of Conservation of Momentum
product of force applied and time interval
Impulse
the softer the landing surface, the _ the time before its stop
longer
Impulse equation
l=Ft, Ft=pf - pi
change in the momentum of object
impulse
What is the impulse of an object moving with constant momentum?
