Momentum and Impulse
... Momentum is a vector quantity • To fully describe the momentum of a 5-kg bowling ball moving westward at 2 m/s, you must include information about both the magnitude and the direction of the bowling ball • p=m*v • p = 5 kg * 2 m/s west • p = 10 kg * m / s west ...

5 The Harmonic Oscillator
... The amplitude A' of the forced oscillation is proportional to the strength Fo of the driving force, as we might have expected. It is strongly dependent on the angular frequency ω of the driving force; when this frequency equals the angular frequency ωo of free oscillations of the system, A' is infin ...

Conservation of momentum
... Conservation of momentum Investigation 11A: Conservation of momentum The law of conservation of momentum is a powerful generalization of Newton’s third law. For an isolated system, the total momentum of all the objects inside is constant. In this investigation, you will explore the conservation of m ...

Momentum and Collisions 6 – 1 Momentum and Impulse page 208
... Force X time interval = change in momentum This theorem states that an external force applied over a certain time interval will change an object’s momentum. A small force applied over a long time will have the same effect in momentum as a large force applied over a short time assuming constant force ...

Concept Question: Normal Force
... Because the impulse is the same for the two carts, the change in momentum is the same. Both start from rest so they both have the same final momentum. Since the mass of the lighter cart is smaller than the mass of the heavier cart, the kinetic energy of the light cart is larger than the kinetic ener ...
