Law of Conservation of Linear Momentum and Impulse

Law of Conservation of Linear Momentum and Impulse

Multiple Choice

The Law of Conservation of Momentum states:

• The total momentum before a collision is equal to the total momentum after a collision.

• The total momentum before a collision is greater than the total momentum after a collision.

• The total momentum before a collision is less than the total momentum after a collision.

• The total momentum before a collision is not related to the total momentum after a collision.

Multiple Choice

If two objects collide or explode, they experience

• the same force for the same amount of time.

• different forces for the same amount of time.

• different forces for different amounts of time.

• the same force for different amounts of time.

Q2:

What is COLLISION?

COLLISION

Collision is also called as impact.

In physics, a forceful coming together in direct contact of two bodies.

TYPES OF COLLISION

Elastic Collision

Perfectly Inelastic Collision

Inelastic Collision

Multiple Choice

When two bodies of the same masses join together during collision and move together as one after the collision.

Example : Clay

• Elastic Collision

• Collision

• Inelastic Collision

• Perfectly inelastic Collision

Multiple Choice

A collision in which both momentum and Kinetic energy are conserved.

Example : Sphere with the same mass

• Elastic Collision

• Collision

• Inelastic Collision

• Perfectly Inelastic Collision

Multiple Choice

It is the interaction that occurs when the two or more object hits each other.

• Elastic Collision

• Collision

• Inelastic Collision

• Perfectly inelastic Collision

Multiple Choice

In this type of collision, objects tend to "stick" together.

• elastic

• inelastic

• They "stick" together in both types of collisions

Equation:

 $m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v_1’+m_2v_2’$
