REASONING STRATEGY Applying the Principle of Conservation of Linear Momentum

1.Decide which objects are included in the system. 2.Relative to the system that you have chosen, identify the internal forces and the external forces. 3.Verify that the system is isolated. In other words, verify that the sum of the external forces applied to the system is zero. Only if this sum is zero can the conservation principle be applied. If the sum of the average external forces is not zero, consider a different system for analysis. 4.Set the total final momentum of the isolated system equal to the total initial momentum. Remember that linear momentum is a vector. If necessary, apply the conservation principle separately to the various vector components.

A baseball pitcher throws a baseball and the batter hits it. During the hit, the baseball receives a greater impulse than the bat.

3rd Law forces are equal so impulses are also equal and they don't change Fx time or m x change in velocity

An airplane is flying horizontally with a constant momentum during a time interval Δt. (a) Is there a net impulse acting on the plane during this time? Use the impulse-momentum theorem to guide your thinking. (b) In the horizontal direction, both the thrust generated by the engines and air resistance act on the plane. Considering your answer to part (a), how is the impulse of the thrust related in magnitude and direction to the impulse of the force due to the air resistance? (a) No. (b) They're equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. (a) Yes. (b) They're equal in both magnitude and direction. (a) No. (b) They're equal in both magnitude and direction. (a) Yes. (b) They're equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

A (a) No, because the momentum is constant. (b) The impulse of the thrust is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the impulse of the force due to air resistance. In this way, the net impulse is zero.

inelastic collision

A collision in which kinetic energy is not conserved. momentum is conserved

power

A measure of the rate of doing work or transferring energy

conservation

A particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves.

isolated system

A system that does not interact with its surroundings, that is, its total energy and mass stay constant

In 1971, Astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr. hit 3 golf balls on the moon. The first two were 'duds', as it was hard to get a good swing (his suit weighed about 350 pounds on Earth, and is not very flexible), but the third went flying! If the gravity on Earth is 6 times that of the Moon, how many times further will a golf ball travel on the moon than one hit the same on Earth? Ignore wind resistance. A) 6 times C) 36 times E) same distance B) 1/6 as far D) 1/36 as far

A) 6 times ??

Why do most cars have anti-lock brakes, or why should you "pump" brakes in an older car if you wish to stop as quickly as possible? A) A "locked" tire invokes kinetic friction B) A "locked" tire invokes static friction

A) A "locked" tire invokes kinetic friction - which is the "weaker" friction

elastic collision

An encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies after the encounter is equal to their total kinetic energy before the encounter. Elastic collisions occur only if there is no net conversion of kinetic energy into other forms. momentum is conserved

A satellite explodes in outer space, far from any other body, sending thousands of pieces in all directions. Is the linear momentum of the satellite before the explosion less than, equal to, or greater than the total linear momentum of all the pieces after the explosion? less than equal to greater than

B According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum, the linear momentum is conserved in this case because there are no external forces acting on the system.

Suppose you are standing on the edge of a dock and jump straight down. If you land on sand your stopping time is much shorter than if you land on water. Using the impulse-momentum theorem as a guide, determine which one of the following statements is correct. (a) In bringing you to a halt, the sand exerts a greater impulse on you than does the water. (b) In bringing you to a halt, the sand and the water exert the same impulse on you, but the sand exerts a greater average force. (c) In bringing you to a halt, the sand and the water exert the same impulse on you, but the sand exerts a smaller average force.

B Because the impulse is the same in both scenarios, the average force multiplied by the elapsed time will be the same. The sand will exert a larger average force since the elapsed time is shorter.

Imagine two balls colliding on a billiard table that is friction-free. Using the momentum-conservation principle as a guide, decide which statement is correct: (a) The total momentum of the system that contains only one of the two balls is the same before and after the collision. (b) The total momentum of the system that contains both of the two balls is the same before and after the collision.

(a) Can a single object have a kinetic energy and no momentum? (b) Can a group of two or more objects have a total kinetic energy that is not zero but a total momentum that is zero? (a) yes; (b) yes (a) yes; (b) no (a) no; (b) yes (a) no; (b) no

B no, yes (a) If an object has kinetic energy, then its has both mass and velocity and thus has momentum. (b) Kinetic energy is a scalar, but momentum is a vector. Even if the objects are moving, their total momenta could be zero because it's a vector. For example, two objects with the same mass and speed could be moving in opposite directions.

Although 80 gees are OK, brain trauma, such as concussion or worse, will result if the head suffers an acceleration of more than 100 gees for more than one millisecond. To help protect the brain, cerebrospinal fluid surrounds the tissue inside the scull. However, the density of CSF is greater than the density of grey and white matter. Assume a person is in a moving car that drives straight-on into a large tree. The head comes to a quick stop, either by hitting the steering wheel or an airbag. According to the first law, the area of the brain injury, which is where the brain tissue actually contacts the scull bone, is located where? A) in the front B) in the back C) on the sides

B) in the back ?? why

A net external force acts on a particle that is moving along a straight line. This net force is not zero. Which one of the following statements is correct? Entry field with correct answer The velocity, but not the kinetic energy, of the particle is changing. The kinetic energy, but not the velocity, of the particle is changing. Both the velocity and the kinetic energy of the particle are changing

Both Since the net force isn't zero, the kinetic energy will change. Since the kinetic energy changes, the speed will change, and speed is the magnitude of velocity, so the velocity will change as well.

C GxMm/R^2 = mv^2/R this means R has a larger v

In Times Square in New York City, people celebrate on New Year's Eve. Some just stand around, but many move about randomly. Consider a group consisting of all of these people. Approximately, what is the total linear momentum of this group at any given instant? their total impulse their average speed multiplied by their total mass zero

C The average velocity of a group of objects moving randomly is zero. The total linear momentum is the average velocity multiplied by the total mass, so the total linear momentum is also zero.

Two objects have the same momentum. How do their velocities compare? They must have same directions and the same magnitudes. They must have the same magnitudes but they could have different directions. They must have the same directions but they could have different magnitudes. Their directions and the magnitudes could both be different.

C The velocities must have the same directions in order for the directions of their momenta to be the same. The velocities could have different magnitudes because their masses could be different.

C) one-half the force with which it was fired. D) no force is required to keep it moving.

D no force is required to keep it moving.

An object slides along the surface of the earth and slows down because of kinetic friction. If the object alone is considered as the system, the kinetic frictional force must be identified as an external force that, according to Equation 7.4, decreases the momentum of the system. (a) If both the object and the earth are considered to be the system, is the force of kinetic friction still an external force? (b) Can the frictional force change the total linear momentum of the two-body system? (a) yes (b) yes (a) yes (b) no (a) no (b) yes (a) no (b) no

D No, No In this case, the frictional force is no longer external. Total momentum is conserved for the two bodies since the frictional forces are internal.

"Giddy-up horsey"! A horse pulls on a cart and the cart pulls back on the horse; do these two opposing forces cancel? If you are not careful with the logic, and the physics, you might come to the conclusion that no matter how hard the horse pulls, it can never move the cart. But you know a horse can pull a cart in "real life", so where is the flaw in this reasoning? The action and reaction forces do not cancel each other out because: A) the action and reaction forces do not cancel each other out because they are not equal in magnitude in this situation. B) they are equal in magnitude, but not precisely opposite in direction. C) they are equal in mag., opposite in direction, but do not act at the same time. D) they are not acting on the same body.

D) they are not acting on the same body.

You are standing in a small rowboat that has the same mass as you do. Considering the water as frictionless, if you walk forward 2 meters, the boat moves backwards two meters. With respect to the water, your net displacement is therefore zero. Tricky!

A rocket is at rest on the launch pad. When the rocket is launched, its kinetic energy increases. Consider all of the forces acting on the rocket during the launch, and decide whether the following statement is true or false: The amount by which the kinetic energy of the rocket increases during the launch is equal to the work done by the force generated by the rocket's engine. True False

False there is more than just the engine's force acting on the rocket There are three forces acting on the rocket: the earth's gravity, air resistance and the force generated by the rocket's engine. The amount by which the kinetic energy of the rocket increases is equal to the net work done on the rocket.

A perfectly elastic superball is dropped and bounces to the same height. Momentum is conserved for the following reason: The speed of the ball is the same just before and after the collision with the ground, and because its mass is constant, the value of m times v is the same.

False: momentum is not conserved force from the ground equals net external force (??? normal force doesn't cancel it out)

A bullet (mass = 15 grams, speed = 300 m/s) imbeds itself in a stationary block of wood (m=1500 grams). What is the final speed of the wood assuming no loss of material for either substance?

The 15 balls on a pool table are put into the triangle, and the cue ball is used to "break". If the mass of each ball is the same 0.4 kg., and the initial speed of the cue ball is 6 m/s immediately before the collision, what is the total momentum of all 16 balls immediately after the collision? What, if anything, can you say about the total momentum 1 second after the break?

A 10 kg. mass is placed on level ground with a static coefficient of friction of 0.7 and a kinetic coefficient of 0.5. How hard must a person push horizontally on the object to first get it to move.

Friction max (static) = mu*N = .7W = .7mg = 68.6 Newtons.

A horizontal spring is compressed a distance x = L. The spring is responsible, along with friction, for holding two objects in place against the walls without touching the floor. Find a relationship between mu-static and the spring constant k.

Fsp =k delta x = kL = Normal force in opposite direction Friction = mu x normal force = Weight force but in opposite direction = mg mu x k x L =mg

If mechanical energy is conserved, then as kinetic energy increases, potential energy decreases and vice versa.

If you know the potential energy for only some of the forces, then the conservation of energy law in its most general form must be used

KEi+PEi+Wnc+OEi=KEf+PEf+OEf, where OE stands for all other energies.

Use the v-squared over r formula to get 5 gees---this would be enough to force nearly anyone in this room to pass out and crash. This sport is no joke!!!

conservative force

Version 1 A force is conservative when the work it does on a moving object is independent of the path between the object's initial and final positions. Version 2 A force is conservative when it does no net work on an object moving around a closed path, starting and finishing at the same point.

A rope is tied to a tree limb. It is used by a swimmer who, starting from rest, swings down toward the water below, as in Figure 6.17. Only two forces act on him during his descent, the nonconservative force , which is due to the tension in the rope, and his weight, which is due to the conservative gravitational force.

Can we use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to find his speed vf at the point where he lets go of the rope, even though a nonconservative external force is present? (a) Yes. (b) No.

When nonconservative forces are perpendicular to the motion, we can still use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, because such "perpendicular" forces do no work
