  1. Monday December 12, 2011 • Warm Up • Projectile motion describes • the curved path all objects follow on the surface of Earth that results from vertical and horizontal acceleration • b. the straight path all objects follow on the surface of Earth that results from vertical and horizontal acceleration • c. the curved path all objects follow on the surface of Earth that results from vertical acceleration only • d. the curved path all objects follow on the surface of Earth that results from horizontal acceleration only Classwork #57 Momentum Notes #58 Momentum Calculations Homework Complete #56 Test: Friday

  2. #57 Momentum Notes • Momentum – a mass with a velocity. Basically any moving mass. • The more mass the more momentum • The more velocity the more momentum • Objects with a lot of momentum require a larger unbalanced force to stop them

  3. The Law of Conservation of Momentum – when objects collide the total amount of momentum stays the same • EX: a cue ball shot at an 8 ball, the momentum of the cue ball is transferred directly to the 8 ball. • EX2: Newton’s Cradle • When objects stick together - they move as one in the direction of the object with a larger momentum • When objects bounce off each other - momentum is transferred from one object to another • Newton’s 3rd Law explains momentum • Swinging a bat has a lot of momentum, once it hits the baseball the momentum is transferred to the baseball sending it away with an equal momentum • Swinging bat is the action force, the ball hitting the bat is the reaction force

  4. Calculating Momentum • Calculating Momentum • p = m ● v m = mass v = velocity • What is the momentum of a 50 kg boulder rolling 10 m/s south toward you? p = 50 kg ● 10 m/s p = 500 kg ●m/s south You TRY: What is the momentum of an ostrich with a mass of 120 kg running with a velocity of 16 m/s north?

  5. Momentum PracticeShow your work, answer in complete sentences • A 100 Kg tiger is running with a velocity of 30 m/s east. What is its momentum? • A 200 kg wildebeest is running with a velocity of 20 m/s east. What is its momentum? • What do you predict will happen when the two animals collide? • A car and a train are traveling the same velocity, do they have the same momentum? Explain. • Which of the following has the smallest amount of momentum? • A loaded 18-wheeler driving 50 m/s • An car driving 50 m/s • An empty 18-wheeler driving 50 m/s • A loaded car driving 50 m/s • When a car is hit from behind, it sometimes will also hit the car in front of it. Why does this happen?

  7. Conservation of Momentum Paragraph • http://www.flickr.com/photos/physicsclassroom/galleries/72157625280491634/#photo_5168222102 • Look at the 15 pictures on the webpage, and read the descriptions associated with each picture • Answer the questions for each picture • Why do the boys in picture 1 represent momentum? • What is the force that causes a momentum change? • If a train gets off-track, why would its momentum be difficult to stop? • Why is it correct to say that boxing is all about momentum? • Why does the velocity of a martial arts expert’s hand play an important role in breaking the stone? • Why would it be better to have several small collisions rather than one large one? • How do seat belts and safety features help in a crash in terms of momentum? • In football the how does the collision of 2 players conserve momentum? • If you lift 3 spheres in a Newton’s Cradle, how many would you expect to come out on the other side and why? • In bowling, which object has the most momentum (pins or bowling ball) and why? • Why does the 4 ball loose momentum in the billiards scenario? • Air Hockey: Why would it be beneficial to study conservation of momentum in an environment with zero friction? • Baseball: where does the momentum from the baseball players swing go? • Water Balloon: Where does the momentum to break the balloon come from? • Choose one picture to write a 5 sentence paragraph about. You will discuss: • Where does the momentum begin in the picture • what are the factors that affect momentum • What does the Law of Conservation of Momentum state • How is momentum transferred and conserved in the picture. (do they objects stick together or bounce off?)
