Momentum

• Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object.

• Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

• Momentum is possessed by all moving objects.

Calculating Momentum• For one particle

p = mv• For a system of multiple particles

P = pi = mivi

• Momentum is a vector with the same direction as the velocity vector.

• The unit of momentum is…kg m/s or Ns

Change in momentum

• Like any change, change in momentum is calculated by looking at final and initial momenta.

• p = pf – pi

– p: change in momentum

– pf: final momentum

– pi: initial momentum

Page 8: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

• In which case is the change in momentum greatest?

Page 9: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Momentum change demonstration• Using only a meter stick, find the

momentum change of each ball when it strikes the desk from a height of exactly one meter.

• Which ball, Bouncy or Lazy, has the greatest change in momentum?

• Please document the activity in a lab report.

• (mass = 0.00915 kg; mass = 0.010 kg)

Page 10: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Impulse (J)

• Impulse (J) is the product of an external force and time, which results in a change in momentum of a particle or system.

• J = F t• J = P• Units: N s or kg m/s (same as

momentum)

Page 11: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Impulsive Forces• Usually high

magnitude, short duration.

• Suppose the ball hits the bat at 90 mph and leaves the bat at 90 mph, what is the momentum change?

• What is the impulse on the ball from the bat?

Sample Problem

• Suppose a 1.5-kg brick is dropped on a glass table top from a height of 20 cm.a) What is the magnitude and direction of the impulse necessary

to stop the brick?b) If the table top doesn’t shatter, and stops the brick in 0.01 s,

what is the average force it exerts on the brick?c) What is the average force that the brick exerts on the table

top during this period?

Page 14: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Solution a)Find the velocity of the brick when it strikes the

table using conservation of energy.mgh = ½ mv2

v = √(2gh) = √(2*9.8 m/s2*0.20 m) = 2.0 m/sCalculate the brick’s momentum when it strikes the

table.p = mv = (1.5 kg)(2.0 m/s) = 3.0 kg m/s (down)The impulse necessary to stop the brick is the

impulse necessary to change to momentum to zero.

J = p = pf – pi = 0 – 3.0 kg m/s = -3.0 kg m/s

or 3.0 kg m/s (up)

Page 15: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Solution b) and c)

b) Find the force using the other equation for impulse.

J = Ft3.0 N s = F (0.01 s)F = 300 N (upward in the same

direction as impulse)c) According the Newton’s 3rd law, the

brick exerts an average force of 300 N downward on the table.

Page 17: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

SolutionFind the impulse from the area under the curve.A = ½ base * height = ½ (.1 s)(2500 N) = 125 NsJ = 125 N sSince impulse is equal to change in momentum and it

is in the same direction as the existing momentum, the momentum increases by 125 kg m/s.

p = 125 kg m/s p = pf - pi = mvf - mvi

mvf = mvi + p

= (1.2 kg)(120 m/s) + 125 kg m/s = 269 kg m/s

vf = (269 kg m /s) / (1.2 kg) = 224 m/s

Law of Conservation of Momentum

Page 19: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Law of Conservation of Momentum

• If the resultant external force on a system is zero, then the vector sum of the momenta of the objects will remain constant.

• Pbefore = Pafter

Page 20: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Sample problem

• A 75-kg man sits in the back of a 120-kg canoe that is at rest in a still pond. If the man begins to move forward in the canoe at 0.50 m/s relative to the shore, what happens to the canoe?

Page 21: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Solution

The momentum before the man moves is equal to the momentum after the man moves.

pb = pa

0 = mmvm + mcvc

0 = (75 kg)(0.50 m/s) + (120 kg)vv = - (75 kg)(0.50 m/s)/(120 kg)v = -0.31 m/sThe canoe slips backward in the water at -

0.31 m/s

External versus internal forces

• External forces: forces coming from outside the system of particles whose momentum is being considered.– External forces change the momentum of

the system.

• Internal forces: forces arising from interaction of particles within a system.– Internal forces cannot change momentum of

the system.

Page 23: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

An external force in golf• Consider the

collision between the club head and the golf ball in the sport of golf.

• The club head exerts an external impulsive force on the ball and changes its momentum. •The acceleration of the ball is

greater because its mass is smaller.

Page 24: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

An internal force in pool• Consider the collision

between two balls in pool.

• The forces they exert on each other are internal and do not change the momentum of the system.

• Since the balls have equal masses, the magnitude of their acceleration is equal.

Page 25: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Explosions

• When an object separates suddenly, as in an explosion, all forces are internal.

• Momentum is therefore conserved in an explosion.

• There is also an increase in kinetic energy in an explosion. This comes from a potential energy decrease due to chemical combustion.

Page 26: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Recoil

• Guns and cannons “recoil” when fired.• This means the gun or cannon must move

backward as it propels the projectile forward.

• The recoil is the result of action-reaction force pairs, and is entirely due to internal forces.

• As the gases from the gunpowder explosion expand, they push the projectile forwards and the gun or cannon backwards.

Page 27: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Sample problem

• Suppose a 5.0-kg projectile launcher shoots a 209 gram projectile at 350 m/s. What is the recoil velocity of the projectile launcher?

Page 28: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Solution

Momentum conservation is used to calculate recoil speed.

pb = pa

0 = mpvp + mlvl

0 = (0.209 kg)(350 m/s) + (5.0 kg)vv = - (0.209 kg)(350 m/s)/(5.0 kg)v = - 14.6 m/s

Sample Problem• An exploding object breaks into three fragments. A 2.0 kg

fragment travels north at 200 m/s. A 4.0 kg fragment travels east at 100 m/s. The third fragment has mass 3.0 kg. What is the magnitude and direction of its velocity?

Page 30: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

SolutionThe momentum before is zero, so the momentum after is

zero.This is a vector addition problem. Each fragment has a

momentum magnitude of 400 kg m/s according to the formula p = mv.

Collisions

Page 33: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Collisions• When two moving objects make contact

with each other, they undergo a collision.• Conservation of momentum is used to

analyze all collisions.• Newton’s Third Law is also useful. It tells

us that the force exerted by body A on body B in a collision is equal and opposite to the force exerted on body B by body A.

Page 34: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Collisions• During a collision,

external forces are ignored.

• The time frame of the collision is very short.

• The forces are impulsive forces (high force, short duration).

Page 35: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Collision Types• Elastic collisions

– “Elastic” means ‘returns to pre-collision state.’– No deformation occurs, no kinetic energy lost

• Inelastic collisions– Deformation occurs, kinetic energy is lost

• Perfectly Inelastic (stick together)– Objects stick together and become one object– kinetic energy is lost

Page 36: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Collisions

Elastic

Objects collide and move separately after the collision.

Energy is conserved.

Momentum is conserved.

Inelastic

The collision results in deformation of the objects.

Perfectly Inelastic

Two objects collide and stick together such that their final velocities are the same after the collision.

No deformation occurs.

Page 37: Chapter 8. Momentum. Momentum Momentum is a measure of how hard it is to stop or turn a moving object. Momentum is related to both mass and velocity.

Explosions

• Explosions are the reverse of perfectly inelastic collisions in which kinetic energy is gained!
