The total momentum of a system before a collision is _________ the total momentum of the system after a collision.

It depends on the type of collision

The total momentum of a particle before a collision is _________ the total momentum of the particle after the collision.

It depends on the type of collision

Suppose a ping-pong ball and a bowling ball are rolling toward you. Both have the same momentum, and you exert the same force to stop each. How do the time intervals to stop them compare?

Less time for the ping-pong ball

More time for the ping-pong ball

Which has more momentum: a car stopped at a red light or a bike moving at 15 mph?

cannot determine using the info provided

A rubber ball and a lump of clay have equal mass. They are thrown with equal speed against a wall. The ball bounces back with nearly the same speed with which it hit. The clay sticks to the wall. Which one of these objects experiences the greater momentum change?

Both of them experience the same non-zero momentum change.

Both of them experience zero momentum change.

A small car meshes with a large truck in a head-on collision. Which of the following statements concerning the momentum during the collision are correct?

The momentum of the car-truck system is conserved, but the momentum of each one separately is not conserved

The momentum of the truck is conserved.

The momentum of the car is conserved

The momentum of the car and the momentum of the car are each conserved.

Three cars, car X, car Y, and car Z, begin accelerating from rest at the same time. Car X is more massive than car Y, which is more massive than car Z. The net accelerating force exerted on each car is identical. After 10 seconds, which car has the most amount of momentum?

They all have the same amount of momentum.

A very fast moving golf ball moving east at a speed of 45 m/s collides with a very heavy stationary bowling ball. The golf ball bounces back to the west, and the bowling ball moves very slowly to the east. Which object experiences the greater magnitude impulse during the collision?

Neither, both experienced the same magnitude impulse.

not enough information to determine

The difference between a car hitting a wall vs. a car hitting a hay stack is

the collision time of the car hitting the hay stack is greater

the Impulse on the car hitting the wall is greater

the change in momentum of the car hitting the wall is greater

the force on the car hitting the hay stack is greater

The purpose of crumple zones on a car is to

decrease the impulse during impact.
