Momentum Pre-assessment

The momentum of an object depends upon the object's ___________&_____________.  

• size and shape
• mass and speed
• mass and veloctiy
• mass and energy

The equation to calculate momentum is

• p=mv
• p=1/2mv²
• p=mgh
• p=mg

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

• car
• bike
• they are equal
• cannot determine using the info provided

Determine the momentum of 1000-kg car moving southward at 20 m/s......... 

• 20000 N
• 20000 Joules
• 20000 kg * m/s south

• 10000 kg * m/s south

What is the mass of an object if the momentum is 32 kg⋅m/s and the velocity is 3.6 m/s?

• 8.9 kg

• 28 kg

• 0.11 kg

A 2.5 kg ball moving at 5 m/s collides with a 2.5 kg stationary ball in a perfectly elastic collision.  What is the velocity of the second ball after the collision? 

• 5 m/s
• 2.5 m/s
• 10 m/s
• 7.5 m/s

Momentum is a ____________________ quantity
