Question 1

What is the total momentum of a system of particles if no external forces act?

  • It increases over time
  • It decreases over time
  • It remains constant

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the law of conservation of momentum.

Question 2

True or False: Momentum of a single particle can change when an external force acts on it.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the effect of forces acting on motion.

Question 1

A 5 kg cart moving at 10 m/s collides inelastically with a 3 kg cart at rest. Calculate the final velocity after the collision.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to conserve momentum through the whole system during the collision.

Question 2

Two ice hockey pucks collide on a frictionless rink. Puck A (0.5 kg, moving at 2 m/s) collides elastically with puck B (0.3 kg, at rest). What are their velocities after collision?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use both conservation of momentum and kinetic energy formulas to solve.
