Momentum Flashcards
Motion
Momentum is a measure of the ________ of an object.
It's mass
Anya knows the velocity of an object. What else does she need to know in order to find the object's momentum
6.0 kg m/s
What is the momentum of a 5 kg object that has a velocity of 1.2 m/s?
40,000 kg m/s
A car has a momentum of 20,000 kg ⢠m/s. What would the car's momentum be if its velocity doubles?
9 kg
A bicycle has a momentum of 36 kg ⢠m/s and a velocity of 4 m/s. What is the mass of the bicycle?
The red ball has a greater velocity than the purple ball
The chart lists the masses of four balls that have the same momentum. Which correctly compares two of the balls?
Remains the same
The law of conservation of momentum states that, if left alone, the total momentum of two interacting objects that make up a system .
It is equal to the momentum of object 1 plus the momentum of object 2.
Objects 1 and 2 collide and stick together. Which best describes the momentum of the resulting single object?
4 kg m/s
Two carts collide and bounce apart. Cart 1 had a momentum of -6 kg ⢠m/s before the collision. Cart 2 had a momentum of 10 kg ⢠m/s before the collision.What is the total momentum of the carts after the collision?
Law of Conservation of Momentum
Momentum is not lost in a collision
Momentum Formula
P = M(V)
