1. Momentum Math Examples…warning this test has more math than the others!
*Hint expect a math momentum quiz soon. So ask questions if you’ve got em!
Momentum – mass X velocity p=mv
No special unit , usually kg*m/s/s
Find the momentum of a 100kg football player traveling at 20 m/s?
Find the velocity of a car if it has a momentum of 200kg*m/s/s and a mass of 200kg.
Impulse….this one is trickier, Impulse = force X time
It is also = to the change in momentum so mv = Ft
Find the force of an egg that hits a surface with an impulse of 50Ns, over a time of .
1seconds?
If the same egg was dropped on a surface with a little more “give”, and the impact takes 1
second, what is the new force?
If an egg (.25kg) hits the ground with a 50N. If the impact occurs in .25 seconds, how fast
is it moving?
