OBJECTIVES: •compare the momentum of different moving objects• Compare the momentum of the same objects moving with different velocities•Identify examples of change in the momentum of an object•Describe changes in momentum in terms of force and time

Linear Momentum…

• The equationfor momentum is: = mv

Where is momentummomentum, m is mass, and v is velocity.

Linear Momentum

• Momentum is a VECTOR QUANTITY.VECTOR QUANTITY.

• It’s direction matches that of its velocity.

• The SI units of momentum are Kg x m/s

Linear Momentum

• Think about coasting down a steep hill on your bike…– The faster you move, the more momentum you

have and the more difficult it is to come to a stop.

• At the same speed…the larger the mass of the object the more momentum that object has.

Change in Momentum

• A change in momentum takes force and time.

F = t

Force = Change in momentum time interval

IMPULSE MOMENTUM THEOREM

• (Page 210 in textbook)• Impulse for a constant external force, the product of the

force and the time over which it acts on an object.

• Impulse momentum theorem:

F t = or

F t = = mv(final) – mv(initial)

IMPULSE MOMENTUM THEOREM

• Stopping times and distance depend on the impulse-momentum theorem.

• Two trucks with the same mass traveling at the same speed, but one is loaded down…

• The truck with a load in the bed, MUST undergo a GREATER change in momentum than the truck without a load when arriving upon the same stop sign.

Figure 6-3 in text…

• The loaded down truck’s momentum is twice as great, so its change in momentum is also twice as great. The applied forces are the same, so the time period must be twice as great as well.

= F t

Figure 6-3 in text…

• How do the stopping distances compare?– The loaded truck’s time period is twice as great while its

acceleration is half as much (F-ma). – Because x = Vi t + ½ a t 2

– the loaded truck’s stopping distance is 2 times as great as the empty trucks.

A change in momentum over a longer time requires less force.

• If the speed of a particle is doubled, then the momentum increases by a factor of 2.

• The thespeed of a particle is doubled, then the KE increases by a factor of 4.

Impulse and Momentum

• What is the relationship???Impulse is equivalent to a change in momentum.

When comparing the momentum of 2 moving objects…The less massive object will have less momentum if the velocities are the same.

Review…

• If the speed of a particle is doubled…– By what factor is its momentum changed?– What happens to its KE?

• KE increases by a factor of 4

• Why the difference?

CONSERVATION of MOMENTUM

• ρ1i + ρ2i = ρ1f + ρ2f

• m 1 v1i + m 2 v2i = m 1 v1f + m 2 v2f

TOTAL INITIAL MOMENTUM = TOTAL FINAL MOMENTUM

COPY DOWN IN NOTES…

• The total momentum of all objects interacting with one another remains constant regardless of the nature of the forces between the objects.

READING

• Read Page 216-217 on momentum conservation

• Understand that momentum is conserved during collisions AND for objects that are pushing away from each other.

EXAMPLE

• 2 Skaters pushing away from each other (fig 6-7)Both initially at rest with a momentum of ρ1i = ρ2i =0

When they push away from each other, they move in opposite directions with EQUAL but OPPOSITE momentum so that the final momentum is also 0.

ρ1f + ρ2f

SAMPLE

• A 76 kg boater, initially at rest in a stationary 45 kg boat, steeps 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?

• m1i v1i + m2i v2i =m1f v1f +m2f v2f

Solution

• m1i v1i + m2i v2i =m1f v1f +m2f v2f

• 190 kg m/s + 45 kg ( v2f) = 0

• 45 kg ( v2f) = -190 kg m/s • ( v2f) = -190 kg m/s

45 kg ( v2f) = -4.2 m/s

The negative sign indicates that the boat is moving left. (opposite direction of the boater)
