AP Physics I
Study Guide: Impulse, Momentum and Energy – Answer Key
Chapter 7 Linear Momentum
•
Momentum is defined as _____ mass times velocity _____________
•
Impulse is defined as force x time and is equal to the __ change in
momentum.
•
In all interactions between isolated objects, momentum is conserved
(constant).
This means that the total momentum of the system __before__ the collision is
equal to the total momentum of the system __after___ the collision.
1. There are three types of collisions that can occur
i.
ii.
iii.
__elastic___collisions where objects collide and there is no
energy lost
_completely inelastic_ collisions where objects stick together
and move together as one object after the collision.
_inelastic_collisions – where objects collide, there is some
energy lost and the objects do not stick together. Most collisions
are of this type.
•
Momentum __is__ conserved but kinetic energy _is not__ conserved in an
inelastic collision.
•
In an inelastic collision, _kinetic__ energy is converted to internal elastic
_potential__ energy when the objects deform. Some kinetic energy is also
converted to sound energy and internal energy (heat).
•
In an _elastic_ collision, two objects return to their original shapes and move
away from the collision separately.
•
Both _momentum and _kinetic energy__ are conserved in an elastic collision.
•
In an elastic collision, the speed of approach is equal to the speed of
separation or v1 – v2 = v2’ – v1’

average braking force?
ans. – 37500 N
3. A ball moving with a momentum of 5 kg m/s has an elastic collision with a
stationary ball. After the collision the first ball is at rest and the second ball
which had been stationary is moving. What is the momentum of the
second ball?
ans. 5 kg m/s
4. A 65.0 kg ice skater moving to the right at 2.5 m/s throws a 0.15 kg

ans. 2.4 m/s

completely inelastic collision?
ans. 0.08 m/s
5. If two objects collide and one is initially at rest, is it possible for both to be
at rest after the collision? Explain your answer.
No! Initial momentum not zero, final can’t be zero!

a. Find the velocity of the 25.0 g marble.
ans. 0.17 m/s
b. Is the collision elastic?
Yes. KEf = KEi
8. A 15.0-kg object moving in the +x direction at 5.5 m/s collides head-on
with a 10.0-kg object moving in the -x direction at 4.0 m/s. Find the final
velocity of each mass if: (a) the objects stick together; (b) the collision is
elastic; (c) the 15.0-kg object is at rest after the collision; (d.) the 10.0-kg
object is at rest after the collision; (e) the 15.0-kg object has a velocity of
4.0 m/s in the -x direction after the collision. Are the results in (c), (d), and
(e) "reasonable"? Explain.
a) 1.7 m/s
b) -2.1 m/s, 7.4 m/s
c) 4.3 m/s; reasonable
d) 2.8 m/s; not reasonable (15 kg object passes through
10 kg object).
e) -4.0 m/s, 10.3 m/s; not reasonable (KE gained).
9. A 1500-kg car traveling at 30 m/s east collides with a 2000-kg car traveling
at 25.0 m/s south. The two cars stick together after the collision. What is
the velocity of the cars immediately after the collision?
v’ = 19.2 m/s at 48 degrees south of east.
Chapter 6 Work and Energy
Key Concepts
Use these words to fill in the blanks. All words are used; some may be used
more than once.
conserved
time
destroyed
position
created
kinetic
kinetic energy
displacement
area
mass
potential
force
work
speed
Work is done only when there is a __ displacement ___ in the direction of a
component of the net force.
Work can be calculated from the ___ area ___ under the ___ force ___ vs.
displacement curve.
Power is the __ work _ done per unit __time___.
Objects in motion have kinetic energy because of their __mass_ and _speed_.
The net work done on or by an object is equal to the change in the __kinetic
energy_______ of the object.
Potential energy is energy associated with an object’s _position_______. It
represents the objects potential to have _kinetic______ energy or do
_work______.
Energy can be transformed but can never be _created__ or _destroyed__.
Mechanical energy is the sum of the __potential__ and __kinetic____ energy in
a system.
In the absence of friction, mechanical energy is __conserved__ (remains
constant).
Equations:
Wnet = Fnet*d*cosφ
P = Work/time (and also Force x velocity)
KE = 1/2 mv2
Wnet = ΔKE
PEgravitational = mgh
PEelastic = 1/2kx2 (where x is the displacement from the unstretched position).
Mechanical Energy ME = PE + KE (Where PE can be either PEgravitational or
PEelastic or both).
PEi + KEi = PEf + KEf
(Conservation of Mechanical Energy)
