and Collisions
1
Linear Momentum and Its Conservation
2
• The linear momentum of a particle or an object that can be modeled
as a particle of mass m moving with a velocity v is defined to be the
product of the mass and velocity: p = mv
• Newton’s second law for a particle

Impulse and Momentum
(a) A force acting on a particle may vary in time. The impulse imparted to the
particle by the force is the area under the force-versus-time curve.
(b) In the time interval (t, the time-averaged force (horizontal dashed line) gives the
same impulse to a particle as does the time-varying force described in part (a). 7
• Airbags in automobiles have saved countless lives in accidents. The
airbag increases the time interval during which the passenger is
brought to rest, thereby decreasing the force on (and resultant injury
to) the passenger.

• A block of mass m1 = 1.60 kg initially moving to the right with a speed
of 4.00 m/s on a frictionless horizontal track collides with a spring
attached to a second block of mass m2 = 2.10 kg initially moving to
the left with a speed of 2.50 m/s, as shown in figure. The spring
constant is 600 N/m. (265)
– Find the velocities of the two blocks after the collision.
– During the collision, at the instant block 1 is moving to the right with a velocity
of +3.00 m/s, as in figure, determine the velocity of block 2.
– Determine the distance the spring is compressed at that instant.
– What is the maximum compression of the spring during the collision?

example
• A cannon is rigidly attached to a carriage, which can move along
horizontal rails but is connected to a post by a large spring, initially
unstretched and with force constant k = 2.00 x 104 N/m, as in figure.
The cannon fires a 200-kg projectile at a velocity of 125 m/s directed
45.0° above the horizontal.
– If the mass of the cannon and its carriage is 5000 kg, find the recoil speed of
the cannon.
– Determine the maximum extension of the spring.
– Find the maximum force the spring exerts on the carriage.

• Sand from a stationary hopper falls onto a moving conveyor belt at
the rate of 5.00 kg/s as in figure. The conveyor belt is supported by
frictionless rollers and moves at a constant speed of 0.750 m/s under
the action of a constant horizontal external force Fext supplied by the
motor that drives the belt. Find power of motor for this condition
