Momentum and impulse

Which one of these objects has the greater amount of momentum?

• A turtle that slowly crosses a road

• A parked car

• A stop sign

A 0.250 kg cart moving at 0.400 m/s has how much momentum?

• 0.1 kg-m/s
• 1 kg-m/s
• 10 kg-m/s
• 100 kg-m/s

When the speed of an object is doubled, its momentum

• remains unchanged in accord with the conservation of momentum.
• doubles
• quadruples
• decreases

A biker with a mass of 75 kg moves along the path with a constant velocity of 5 m/s. What is the biker's momentum?

• 25 m/s
• 375 m/s
• 25 kg m/s
• 375 kg m/s

If the change of momentum of an object is 50kg m/s, we can say the impulse is equal to:

• 0 kg m/s

• 25 kg m/s

• 50 kg m/s

• 100 kg m/s

A 5 N force is applied to a 3 kg ball to change its velocity from +9 m/s to +3 m/s.  The impulse on the ball is  ______ N s.

• -2.5
  .
  .
• -10
• -18
• -45

The graph shows the force on an object of mass M as a function of time. For the time interval 0 to 4 s, the total change in the momentum of the object is

• 40 kg m/s 
• 20 kg m/s
• 0 kg m/s 
• – 20 kg m/s

The law of conservation of momentum states that, 

• p before is less than p after
• p before is the same as p after
• p before is more than p after

In any collision (crash) the ______ is ALWAYS constant.

• Total Momentum
• total speed
• total Velocity
• Energy

A 10kg toy truck moves at 5m/s East. It collides head-on with a 5kg toy car moving 10 m/s moving west. What is the total momentum of the system?

• 0 kgm/s
• 30 kgm/s
• 50 kgm/s
• 10 kgm/s
