Momentum and Impulse

An object that is moving or at rest resists change to its motion. This is called:

• inertia

• momentum

• impulse

• acceleration

A measure of how difficult it is to stop a moving object

• inertia

• momentum

• impulse

• acceleration

Change in momentum

• inertia

• momentum

• impulse

• acceleration

Change in velocity

• inertia

• momentum

• impulse

• acceleration

After a collision, the momentum will be:

• the SAME as before the collision

• LESS THAN before the collision

• GREATER THAN before the collision

If an object with 10 kg*m/s of momentum hits an object with 5 kg*m/s of momentum, what will be the momentum AFTER the collision?

• 15 kg*m/s

• 5 kg*m/s

• 20 kg*m/s

• 50 kg*m/s

In this type of collision, objects STICK TOGETHER

• inelastic

• elastic

• impulse

• force

In this type of collision, objects DO NOT stick together

• inelastic

• elastic

• impulse

• force

In this type of collision, objects are usually deformed or crushed
