Momentum Section 3: Impulse Momentum Theorem
3
Objects tend to maintain their motion = INERTIA A net force is required to change motion- Newton’s 1 st Law F = ma – Newton’s 2 nd Law If a force is applied, an equal and opposite force will result. Forces, and other vector quantities, can be added graphically and analytically
4
A quantity that relates the mass of an object and it’s velocity. Ummmmm…..Wasn’t that inertia? Yes, Newton strikes again! Momentum is inertia in motion. ◦ Momentum = mass x velocity p = mv CARD !
5
In order for momentum to change either mass, velocity or both must change. Most of the time mass remains constant and velocity changes. What causes a v? FORCE!!! This force is applied over a time so……. the product of F and t = Impulse = Ft J = F t CARD!
6
A soccer player exerts 40 N of force during a 2 s collision with the ball. What impulse does he experience? List Givens ◦ F = 40 N ◦ T = 2 s Choose Equation ◦ J = F t Plug and Chug ◦ J = (40 N)(2 s) = 80 Ns
7
Objects tend to maintain their motion = INERTIA A net force is required to change motion- Newton’s 1 st Law F = ma – Newton’s 2 nd Law Stop right there! Let’s take another look at that equation
8
So F = m x v t OR… F t = m v This is IMPULSE! This is change in MOMENTUM! What does that mean?
9
F t = m v This says that Impulse is equal to the change in momentum It is relevant to our everyday lives to understand the relationship and how it makes us feel. CARD!
10
In most cases, by the time you realize that you need to change momentum (come to a stop) your initial velocity is set. ◦ v i = set number ◦ v f = 0 m/s ◦ m doesn’t change This means that the m v, change in momentum, side of the equation is set The Impulse side can be adjusted
11
p can be either: a BIG force x a small time OR a small force x a BIG time Which feels better?
12
CARD !
13
A 125 kg cyclist hits a pothole while traveling at 20 m/s and comes to a, very wet, stop in.2 s. What force does the rider experience?
14
List Givens: ◦ m = 125 kg ◦ v i = 20 m/s ◦ v f = 0 m/s ◦ t =.2 s Choose an equation: ◦ F t = m v Plug and Chug: ◦ F = m v t F = (125 kg)(20 m/s).2s = 12,500 N
