- Momentum
- Types of Forces
- Internal: forces between objects in a system
- External: forces on objects from outside the system
- System
- A collection of objects
- Open: forces or mass may enter or leave
- Closed: no force or mass may enter nor leave
- Isolated: no net external forces
- Impulse
- Product of impact force and impact time
- Impulse = (fDt)
- Unit: n/s
- Momentum
- Newton: The quantity of motion
- Modern : inertia in motion
- Momentum = mass x velocity
- P = m • v
- Unit: kg•m/s
- Impulse and Momentum
- F = ma
- A = (vf - vi) / Dt
- F = m(vf-vi)/Dt
- FDt = mvf - mvi
- (Mvf -mvi = Dp)
- Impulse Momentum Theorem
- Impulse of a net force on an object equals the change in momentum
- F
t = D mv
- Effect of Impulse
- Large Dp requires a large impulse
- May be large F or long t
- Short "t" means high F
- Effect of Positive Impulse
- Strike object with high force
- Maintain contact (follow through)
- Large Dp
- Ex. Baseball, golf ball
- Effect of Negative Impulse
- Slow an object
- Short time causes high F, greater potential for damage
- Control of contact time controls F and thus damage
- Question
- When a dish falls, will the impulse be less if it lands on a carpet than if it lands on a hard floor? How will the impact be affected?
- Question
- If the boxer in the previous picture is able to make the impact time 5 times longer by riding the punch, by how much will the force of impace be reduced?
- Bouncing
- Impulse needed to bring object to stop
- Impulse needed to "throw it back"
- Impulse of bounce is total of these
- Examples
- Fallling pot
- Pelton wheel;
- Cup shaped blades
- Bouncing increased force
- More effective at grinding ore
- Problem Solving
- Concepts: ft = mDv, p = mv
- Solve for the unknown
- Substitute numbers and solve
- Types of Collisions: Elastic
- Objects collide and the move separately
- No external forces
- No change in temperature
- Energy and p are conserved
- Types of Collisions: Inelastic
- Objects collide and couple
- External forces and temperature change present
- P is conserved
- Energy is not conserved
- Momentum and Collisions
- Impulse is a force
- By third law, equal impulse in opposite directions
- \
Momenta are equal and opposite
- Law of Conservation
- The momentum of a closed, isolated system does not change
- Momentum Problems
- Concept: pa + pb = p’a + p’b
- Mava + mbvb = mav’a + mbv’b
- Define the system
- Solve for unknown quantity
- Substitute numbers and solve
- Momentum and Open Systems
- Why is it not conserved?
- External force may influence system
- More impulse
- Addition of momentum
- Multiple Directions
- Pt
is the vector sum of individual momenta
- Vector sum before = vector sum after collision
- Draw diagram
- If a = 90º
- P’a = p’t cosq
- P’b = p’t sin q
- If a ¹ 90º resolve vectors into components to solve
