Momentum and Energy
Momentum
Obviously there is a big difference
between a truck moving 100 mi/hr and a
baseball moving 100 mi/hr.
We want a way to quantify this.
Newton called it Quantity of Motion. We
call it Momentum.
Definition: Momentum = (mass)x(velocity)
p = mv
Momentum is a vector.
Combination of mass and velocity
Large momentum for massive objects
moving slowly or small objects moving
quickly
Newton’s 2nd Law
p
F
t
Note: Sometimes we write t instead of just t.
They both represent the time interval for
whatever change occurs in the numerator.

Since p = mv, we have p = (mv)
If m is constant (not true for rockets and
ballons), p = mv and v/t = a
Rearrange Newton’s 2nd Law
p Ft
This is the impulse
Impulse is the total change in momentum
Example
Baseball
p = pf – pi
= mvf – (-mvi)
= m(vf + vi)
F = p/t
Where t is the time the
bat is in contact with
the ball
Realistic numbers
M = 0.15 kg
Vi = -40 m/s
Vf = 50 m/s
t = 0.0007 s
F = 19286 N
a = 128571 m/s2

Crumple zones on
cars increase the time
for a car to stop. This
greatly reduces the
average force during
accident.

Example
70 kg person traveling at 15 m/s stops.
p = pf – pi = 0 kgm/s – 1050 kg·m/s = 1050 kg·m/s
Example
70 kg person traveling at 15 m/s stops.
p = pf – pi = 0 kgm/s – 1050 kg·m/s = 1050 kg·m/s
If the person is stopped by the windshield
t = 0.01 s
What is the force?
Example
70 kg person traveling at 15 m/s stops.
p = pf – pi = 0 kgm/s – 1050 kg·m/s = 1050 kg·m/s
If the person is stopped by the windshield
t = 0.01 s
F = -1050 kgm/s/0.01 s = -105000 N
Example
70 kg person traveling at 15 m/s stops.
p = pf – pi = 0 kgm/s – 1050 kg·m/s = 1050 kg·m/s
If the person is stopped by an airbag
t = 0.40 s
What is the force?
Example
70 kg person traveling at 15 m/s stops.
p = pf – pi = 0 kgm/s – 1050 kg·m/s = 1050 kg·m/s
If the person is stopped by an airbag
t = 0.40 s
F = -1050 kgm/s/0.40 s = -2625 N
A woman has survived after falling from the 23rd
floor of a hotel in the Argentine capital, Buenos
Aires.
Her fall was broken by a taxi, whose driver got out moments before the impact
crushed the roof and shattered the windscreen. Eyewitness said the woman
had climbed over a safety barrier and leapt from a restaurant at the top of the
Hotel Crowne Plaza Panamericano. She was taken to intensive care for
treatment for multiple injuries. The woman, who has not been named, is
reported to be an Argentine in her 30s. The taxi driver, named by local media
as Miguel, said he got out of his vehicle just before the impact after noticing a
policeman looking up. "I got out of the car a second before. If I had not got
out, I would have been killed," he told Radio 10. "I was only 10 metres from
the impact. It made a terrible noise," he added.

Conservation of Momentum
Newton’s 3rd Law requires F1 = -F2
p1/t = -p2/t
Or
p1/t + p2/t = 0
Or
p1 + p2 = 0
NO NET CHANGE IN MOMENTUM
Example: Cannon
1000 kg cannon
5 kg cannon ball
Before it fires
Pc + Pb = 0
Must also be true after it fires.
If Vb = 400 m/s
McVc + MbVb = 0
Vc = -MbVb/Mc
= -(5kg)(400m/s)/(1000kg)
= -2m/s

ENERGY & WORK
In the cannon example, both the cannon
and the cannon ball have the same
momentum (equal but opposite).
Question: Why does a cannon ball do so
much more damage than the cannon?

In the cannon example, both the cannon
and the cannon ball have the same

Question: Why does a cannon ball do so
much more damage than the cannon?
Answer: ENERGY
ENERGY & WORK
Essentially, energy is the ability to
make something move.
What transfers or puts energy into
objects?
A push
WORK
We will begin by considering the “Physics”
definition of work.
Work = (Force) x (displacement traveled in
direction of force)
W=Fd
1) if object does not move, NO WORK is done.
2) if direction of motion is perpendicular to
force, NO WORK is done
Example
Push a block for 5 m using a 10 N force.
Work = (10 N) x (5 m)
= 50 Nm
= 50 kgm2/s2
= 50 J (Joules)
I have not done any work if I
push against a wall all day long
but is does not move.

Doing WORK on a body changes its
ENERGY
ENERGY is the capacity to do work.
The release of energy does work, and
doing work on something increases its
energy
E=W=Fd
Two basics type of energy: Kinetic and
Potential.
Kinetic energy: Energy of motion
Potential energy: Energy of situation
Position
Chemical structure
Electrical charge
Kinetic Energy: Energy of Motion
Derivation: Push a ball of mass m with a
constant force.
KE = W = Fd = (ma)d
But d = ½ at2
KE = (ma)(½ at2) = ½ m(at)2
But v = at
KE = ½ mv2

Lift an object through a height, h.
PE = W = Fd= (mg)h
PE = mgh

Conservation of Energy
We may convert energy from one type to
another, but we can never destroy it.
We will look at some examples using only
PE and KE.
KE + PE = const.
OR
KEi + PEi = KEf + PEf
Drop a rock of 100m cliff
Call bottom of cliff h = 0
Initial KE = 0; Initial PE = mgh
Final PE = 0
Use conservation of energy to find final
velocity
mgh = ½mv2
v2 = 2gh
v 2 gh
For our 100 m high cliff

Note that this is the same as we got from
using kinematics with constant acceleration

At bottom, all energy
is kinetic.
At top, all energy is

In between, there is a
mix of both potential

How high can we lift a 1kg
object with the energy content
of 1 Big Mac?

h = PE/(mg)

2 Big Macs have enough energy content to
lift a 1 kg object up to the orbital height of
the International Space Station.
150 Big Macs could lift a person to the
same height.
It would take about 4,000,000 Big Macs to
get the space shuttle to the ISS height.
Note: McDonald’s sells approximately
550,000,000 Big Macs per year.
Revisit: Cannon Momentum
1000kg cannon
5kg cannon ball
Before it fires
Pc + Pb = 0
Must also be true after it fires.
Assume Vb = 400 m/s
McVc + MbVb =0
Vc= -MbVb/Mc
= -(5kg)(400m/s)/(1000kg)
= -2m/s
Cannon: Energy
KEb= ½ mv2 = 0.5 (5kg)(400m/s)2
= 400,000 kgm2/s2
= 400,000 J
KEc= ½ mv2 = 0.5 (1000kg)(2m/s)2
= 2,000 kgm2/s2
= 2,000 J
Note: Cannon Ball has 200 times more
ENERGY
When I drop a rock, it start off with PE which gets
converted in to KE as it falls. At the end, it is not
moving, so it has neither PE or KE. What
happened to the energy?
1.
2.
3.
Energy is not conserved
in this case.
The energy is converted
into Thermal energy
The energy is transferred
to whatever it is dropped
on.
