FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is impulse and how is it related to momentum?
Back
Impulse is the change in momentum of an object when a force is applied over a period of time. It is calculated using the formula: Impulse = Force × Time = Change in Momentum.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to the momentum of a system in a closed system during a collision?
Back
In a closed system, the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, according to the law of conservation of momentum.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an elastic collision?
Back
An elastic collision is a collision in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an inelastic collision?
Back
An inelastic collision is a collision in which momentum is conserved, but kinetic energy is not conserved. The objects may stick together after the collision.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does doubling the speed of an object affect its momentum?
Back
Doubling the speed of an object doubles its momentum, since momentum is directly proportional to velocity (p = mv).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Calculate the momentum of a 75 kg biker moving at 5 m/s.
Back
The momentum of the biker is calculated as p = mv = 75 kg × 5 m/s = 375 kg m/s.
