Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. Show all work for calculation problems.
1. Which of the following best defines momentum?
The rate of change of an object's position.
The product of an object's mass and velocity.
The force acting on an object.
The acceleration of an object.
2. What are the standard units for momentum?
Newtons (N)
Joules (J)
Kilogram-meters per second (kg·m/s)
Meters per second squared (m/s²)
3. Momentum is a quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
4. The principle of of momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system remains constant.
5. An is a change in momentum.
6. A 2 kg ball is traveling at 5 m/s. Calculate its momentum.
7. Explain the relationship between impulse and momentum.
8. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.
True
False
9. A smaller mass can have greater momentum than a larger mass if its velocity is high enough.
True
False
10. A 1500 kg car traveling at 20 m/s collides with a stationary 1000 kg car. If the two cars stick together after the collision, what is their combined velocity?
