AP Physics I Study Guide Chapter 7: Momentum & Impulse v Momentum and forces
Ø Momentum is shown by the symbol p Ø 𝑝 = 𝑚𝑣 Ø 𝑘𝑔 𝑚/𝑠 Units Ø Momentum is a vector
§ Direction depends on velocity Ø More p means more difficult to stop Ø Changing momentum (called impulse)
§ ∆𝑝 = 𝑚𝑣! −𝑚𝑣! § To change momentum force is required
• 𝐹 = 𝑚𝑎 Having acceleration means there is a change in velocity • 𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑢𝑙𝑠𝑒 = 𝐹 ∆𝑡 • ∆𝑝 = 𝑚 𝑣! − 𝑣! • 𝑚𝑣! −𝑚𝑣! = 𝐹∆𝑡
♦ Impulse momentum theorem • 𝐹 = 𝑚𝑎 • 𝐹 = 𝑚 !
!
• 𝑡 𝐹 = 𝑚𝑣 Ø Elastic collision
§ Kinetic energy is conserved • Only way if something is elastic • !

♦ 𝑚!𝑣!!! −𝑚!𝑣!!! = 𝑚!𝑣!!! −𝑚!𝑣!!! ♦ 𝑚! 𝑣!!! − 𝑣!!! = 𝑚! 𝑣!!! − 𝑣!!! ♦ 𝑚! 𝑣!! − 𝑣!! 𝑣!! + 𝑣!! = 𝑚! 𝑣!! − 𝑣!! 𝑣!! + 𝑣!! ♦ 𝑚!𝑣!! +𝑚!𝑣!! = 𝑚!𝑣!! +𝑚!𝑣!! ♦ 𝑚! 𝑣!! − 𝑣!! = 𝑚! 𝑣!! − 𝑣!! ♦ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑖𝑓 ♦ !! !!!!!!! !!!!!!!

♦ = 𝑣!! + 𝑣!! = 𝑣!! + 𝑣!! Ø Perfectly inelastic
§ Move together in the final situation § 𝑚!𝑣!! +𝑚!𝑣!! = 𝑣! 𝑚! +𝑚!
v Two dimensional collisions Ø ∆𝑝! = 0 Ø ∆𝑝! = 0
v Center of mass
Ø 𝑥!" = !!!!!!(!"!#$)
Ø If no external force and the system at 𝑣! is 0 m/s the center of mass stays constant
