Momentum and Impulse

Poll

In a scale of 1-5 (5 being the highest) how well do you remember the concepts on Momentum and Impulse learned from your JHS Physics?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

• 5

Multiple Choice

Which between the two has greater momentum: sleeping lion or walking ant?

MOMENTUM

It is the product of mass and velocity of an object and describes the "inertia" of moving objects.

p = mv
(momentum = mass x velocity)

unit for momentum: kg $\cdot$  m/s

Fill in the Blanks

Multiple Choice

Which has the greatest momentum among these 3?

• a 55-kg man-skateboard system moving at 40 m/s

• a 181-kg motorcycle moving at 20 m/s

• a 10-wheeler truck parked on the side of a road

prior knowledge check: How are the concepts of IMPULSE and FORCE similar/different from one another?

IMPULSE

force acting on a body within a certain amount of time

I = Ft

(impulse = force x time)

Unit for impulse: N $\cdot$  s

Multiple Choice

Which of the following imparts the greatest impulse on the crate in each of their turn to move it?

• Jon who pushes it with a force of 150 N for 5 seconds

• Jaime who pushes it using one hand with a force of 100 N within 6 seconds

• Gregor who pushes it with a force of 300 N for 3 seconds
