Physics 218 Lecture 14 Dr. David Toback Physics 218, Lecture XIV 1 Chapter 8: Momentum Want to deal with more complicated systems • Collisions • Explosions Newton’s laws still work, but we need some new ideas Physics 218, Lecture XIV 2 Physics 218, Lecture XIV 3 Today’s Lecture • Begin with a definition of Linear Momentum • Then show that conservation of momentum helps us solve certain types of problems –Things colliding –Things exploding Physics 218, Lecture XIV 4 Definition of Linear Momentum Vector equation! P mV Psystem m V ii Physics 218, Lecture XIV 5 Restating Newton’s Second Law “The rate of change of momentum of an object is equal to the net force applied to it” dP F dt Do a check for constant mass : dP dt d ( mV ) dt d (V ) dt m ma √ If we exert a net force on a body, the momentum of the body changes Physics 218, Lecture XIV 6 What if SF=0? If SF=0, then dp/dt = 0, p = constant Momentum doesn’t change mv m' v' momentum before = momentum after Physics 218, Lecture XIV 7 Conservation of Momentum For a system, by Newton’s laws, SF=0 Conservation of Momentum ' ' mi v i mi v i i i Sum of all Sum of all momentum before = momentum after True in X and Y directions separately! Physics 218, Lecture XIV 8 Problem Solving For Conservation of Momentum problems: 1. BEFORE and AFTER 2. Do X and Y Separately Physics 218, Lecture XIV 9 Before Y X Physics 218, Lecture XIV 10 After X Y Physics 218, Lecture XIV 11 So what? Momentum is useful when we don’t know anything about the forces Examples from everyday life: –When ice skating, if you push someone, why do you go backwards? –Why does a gun recoil when you shoot it? Physics 218, Lecture XIV 12 Everyday Experience? Question: Why do you go backwards when you push someone on the ice? Newton’s Law’s answer: When you exert a force on another person, then, by Newton’s law, the person exerts an equal and opposite force on you. Physics 218, Lecture XIV 13 Everyday Experience? Cont… Question: Why do you go backwards when you push someone on the ice? Momentum Conservation Answer: • Before: – The system starts with zero momentum (nobody is moving) • After: – The system ends with zero momentum. You and your friend move in opposite directions Physics 218, Lecture XIV 14 Simple Gun Example A gun of mass MG is sitting at rest with a bullet of mass MB inside it. You shoot the gun and the bullet comes out with a speed V at angle Q. What is the recoil velocity of the gun? Physics 218, Lecture XIV 15 Weird example Ball of mass m is dropped from a height h: • What is the momentum before release? • What is the momentum before it hits the ground? • Is momentum conserved? Physics 218, Lecture XIV 16 What if we add the Earth? • What is the force on the ball? • What is the force on the earth? • Is there any net force in this system? • Is momentum conserved? SF=0, then dp/dt = 0, → p = constant Physics 218, Lecture XIV 17 Momentum for a system is Conserved • Momentum is ALWAYS conserved for a SYSTEM, you just have to look at a big enough system to see it correctly. – Not conserved for a single ball • A ball falling is not a big enough system. You need to consider what is making it fall. – Newton’s Law: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction • Add up all the momentums in the problem – The forcer and the forcee Physics 218, Lecture XIV 18 Energy and Momentum in Collisions Definitions: • Elastic collision = kinetic energy is conserved • Inelastic collision = kinetic energy is not conserved. • Momentum conserved? • Total Energy conserved? Physics 218, Lecture XIV 19 Inelastic Collisions • By definition: Inelastic = mechanical energy not conserved = kinetic energy not conserved • Inelastic Example: Two trains which collide and stick together Physics 218, Lecture XIV 20 Colliding Trains: 1 Dimension The train car on the left, mass m1, is moving with speed Vo when it collides with a stationary car of mass m2. The two stick together. 1. What is their speed after the collision? 2. Show that this is inelastic Physics 218, Lecture XIV 21 Ballistic Pendulum A bullet of mass m and velocity Vo plows into a block of wood with mass M which is part of a pendulum. How high, h, does the block of wood go? Is the collision elastic or inelastic? Physics 218, Lecture XIV 22 Bottom line: When to use Momentum • When you don’t know the forces in the system • When you are studying all of the pieces of the system which are doing the forcing Before and After Problems Physics 218, Lecture XIV 23 Coming up… • Next time: Finish Chapter 8 • Next week: –Start Chapter 9 on Rotation th –Exam 2, Thursday October 26 –Homework 7 due Physics 218, Lecture XIV 24 Physics 218, Lecture XIV 25 Notes • Exam coming up next time….: – Here.
