4 ANALYSING MOMENTUM DATE :

Idea of momentum 1. When an object is moving, ... 2. The amount of momentum ... 3. Momentum is defined. The principle of conservation of momentum : Elastic collision ....................... Inelastic collision Exercise 1
Car A of mass 100 kg travelling at 30 ms-1 collides with Car B of mass 90 kg travelling at 20 ms-1 in front of it. Car A and B move separately after the collision. If car A still moving at 25 ms-1 after collision,determine the velocity of car B after collision. Exercise 2 Car A of mass 100 kg traveling at 30 ms-1 collides with car B of mass 90 kg travelling at 20 ms-1 in front of it. Car A is pulled by Car B after the collision. Determine the commom velocity of car A and B after the collision. Exercise 3 A bullet of mass 2 g is shot from a gun of mass 1 kg with a velocity 150 ms-1 . Calculate the velocity of the recoil of the gun after firing. Exercise 4

An arrow of mass 150 g is shot into a wooden block of mass 450 g lying at rest on a smooth surface. At the moment of impact, the arrow is travelling horizontally at 15 ms-1 Calculate the common velocity after the impact. Exercise 5
A riffle of mass 5.0 kg fires a bullet of mass 50 g with a velocity of 80 ms-1. Calculate the recoil velocity. Explain why the recoil velocity of a riflle is much less than the velocity of the bullet.
