Correct Answer
A. C & DExplanation
C. The momentum of an object varies directly with the speed of the object. This statement is true because momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity, and velocity is directly related to speed.
D. Two objects of different mass are moving at the same speed; the more massive object will have the greatest momentum. This statement is also true because momentum is directly proportional to mass. Therefore, if two objects have the same speed but different masses, the one with greater mass will have greater momentum.Rate this question:

Which of the following statements are true about momentum?
- A less massive object can never have more momentum than a more massive object.
- Two identical objects are moving in opposite directions at the same speed. The forward moving object will have the greatest momentum.
- An object with a changing speed will have a changing momentum.
- A.
A
- B.
B
- C.
C
- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
C. CExplanation
An object with a changing speed will have a changing momentum. Momentum is defined as mass times velocity, so if an object's speed is changing, its velocity is changing, and therefore its momentum is also changing. This is because velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction. As the speed changes, the magnitude of the velocity vector changes, resulting in a change in momentum. Therefore, statement c is true.Rate this question:

Which of the following are true about the relationship between momentum end energy?
- Momentum is a form of energy.
- If an object has momentum, then it must also have mechanical energy.
- If an object does not have momentum, then it definitely does not have mechanical energy either.
- Object A has more momentum than object B. Therefore, object A will also have more kinetic energy.
- Two objects of varying mass have the same momentum. The least massive of the two objects will have the greatest kinetic energy.
- A.
B & E
- B.
A & C
- C.
D & A
- D.
None of the above.
Correct Answer
A. B & EExplanation
Momentum is a property of an object that depends on its mass and velocity, while energy is the ability to do work. Momentum is not a form of energy, so statement A is incorrect. If an object has momentum, it does not necessarily mean that it has mechanical energy, so statement B is incorrect. If an object does not have momentum, it does not mean that it does not have mechanical energy, so statement C is incorrect. Statement D is correct because an object with more momentum will also have more kinetic energy. Statement E is correct because two objects with the same momentum but different masses will have different kinetic energies, with the less massive object having the greater kinetic energy.Rate this question:

- C.
C & D
- D.
All of the above.
Correct Answer
A. A & BExplanation
During a collision, two objects will exert equal forces upon each other even if their mass is significantly different. This is because of Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, the force exerted by one object on the other will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. Additionally, during a collision, an object will always encounter an impulse and a change in momentum. This is because a collision involves a transfer of energy and momentum between the objects involved, resulting in a change in their velocities.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. AExplanation
The statement "Perfectly elastic and perfectly inelastic collisions are the two opposite extremes along a continuum; where a particular collision lies along the continuum is dependent upon the amount kinetic energy which is conserved by the two objects" explains that elastic and inelastic collisions exist on a spectrum, with perfectly elastic and perfectly inelastic collisions being the two extremes. The position of a collision on this spectrum depends on the amount of kinetic energy conserved by the objects involved.Rate this question:
- 11.
Which of the following statements are true about elastic and inelastic collisions?
- Elastic collisions occur when the collision force is a non-contact force.
- Most collisions are not inelastic because the collision forces cause energy of motion to be transformed into sound, light and thermal energy (to name a few).
- A ball is dropped from rest and collides with the ground. The higher that the ball rises upon collision with the ground, the more elastic that the collision is.
- A moving air track glider collides with a second stationary glider of identical mass. The first glider loses all of its kinetic energy during the collision as the second glider is set in motion with the same original speed as the first glider. Since the first glider lost all of its kinetic energy, this is a perfectly inelastic collision.
- A.
A, B & C
- B.
B, C & D
- C.
A, B & D
- D.
All of the above.
Correct Answer
A. A, B & CExplanation
The given answer is A, B & C.
Statement A is true because elastic collisions occur when there is no physical contact between the objects involved, and the collision force is exerted over a distance.
Statement B is true because inelastic collisions usually result in a loss of kinetic energy, which is transformed into other forms of energy such as sound, light, and thermal energy.
Statement C is true because the height to which a ball rises after colliding with the ground is a measure of how much kinetic energy is conserved during the collision. A higher bounce indicates a more elastic collision.
Therefore, the correct answer is A, B & C.Rate this question:

A truck driving along a highway road has a large quantity of momentum. If it moves at the same speed but has twice as much mass, its momentum is ________________.
- A.
Zero
- B.
Quadrupled
- C.
Doubled
- D.
Unchanged
Correct Answer
C. DoubledExplanation
When an object has momentum, it means it has mass and is moving. Momentum is calculated by multiplying an object's mass by its velocity. In this question, the truck is moving at the same speed but has twice as much mass. Since momentum is directly proportional to mass, if the mass doubles, the momentum will also double. Therefore, the correct answer is "doubled".Rate this question:

Consider a karate expert. During a talent show, she executes a swift blow to a cement block and breaks it with her bare hand. During the collision between her hand and the block, the ___.
- A.
Time of impact on both the block and the expert's hand is the same
- B.
Force on both the block and the expert's hand have the same magnitude
- C.
Impulse on both the block and the expert's hand have the same magnitude
- D.
All of the above.
Correct Answer
D. All of the above.Explanation
During the collision between the karate expert's hand and the cement block, the time of impact on both the block and the expert's hand is the same. This means that the duration of the collision is equal for both the block and the hand. Additionally, the force on both the block and the expert's hand have the same magnitude. This implies that the impact of the blow is equally distributed between the block and the hand. Finally, the impulse on both the block and the expert's hand have the same magnitude. Impulse is the change in momentum, and since momentum is conserved in the collision, the impulse experienced by both the block and the hand is the same. Therefore, all of the above statements are true.Rate this question:

In order to catch a ball, a baseball player naturally moves his or her hand backward in the direction of the ball's motion once the ball contacts the hand. This habit causes the force of impact on the players hand to be reduced in size principally because ___.
- A.
The resulting impact velocity is lessened
- B.
The momentum change is decreased
- C.
The time of impact is increased
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
C. The time of impact is increasedExplanation
When a baseball player moves their hand backward in the direction of the ball's motion, it increases the time of impact. By increasing the time of impact, the force of impact on the player's hand is reduced. This is because a longer duration of impact allows for a slower change in momentum, decreasing the force experienced by the hand. Therefore, the correct answer is that the time of impact is increased.Rate this question:

Suppose that Paul D. Trigger fires a bullet from a gun. The speed of the bullet leaving the muzzle will be the same as the speed of the recoiling gun ____.
- A.
Because momentum is conserved
- B.
Because velocity is conserved
- C.
Only if the mass of the bullet equals the mass of the gun
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
C. Only if the mass of the bullet equals the mass of the gunExplanation
The correct answer is "only if the mass of the bullet equals the mass of the gun". This is because according to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum before and after an event must be the same. When the bullet is fired, it exerts a force on the gun causing it to recoil. The momentum of the bullet and the gun must be equal and opposite in order to conserve momentum. Therefore, if the mass of the bullet equals the mass of the gun, the speed of the bullet leaving the muzzle will be the same as the speed of the recoiling gun.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Both the sameExplanation
Both the moth and the car undergo the same change in momentum. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the moth crashes into the windshield, it exerts a force on the car, causing it to experience a change in momentum. At the same time, the car also exerts an equal and opposite force on the moth, causing it to experience a change in momentum. Therefore, both the moth and the car undergo the same change in momentum.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Both the sameExplanation
Both the moth and the car undergo the same impulse. Impulse is the change in momentum, which is equal to the force applied multiplied by the time it acts for. When the moth crashes into the windshield, it exerts a force on the car, causing it to experience a change in momentum. At the same time, the car exerts an equal and opposite force on the moth, causing it to also experience a change in momentum. Since the forces and times are equal and opposite, the impulses experienced by both the moth and the car are the same.Rate this question:

In a physics experiment, two equal-mass carts roll towards each other on a level, low-friction track. One cart rolls rightward at 2 m/s and the other cart rolls leftward at 1 m/s. After the carts collide, they couple (attach together) and roll together with a speed of _____________. Ignore resistive forces.
- A.
0.5 m/s
- B.
0.33 m/s
- C.
1.0 m/s
- D.
none of these
Correct Answer
A. 0.5 m/sExplanation
When the two carts collide, they stick together and form a system with a combined mass. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision. The momentum of an object is equal to its mass multiplied by its velocity.
Before the collision, the momentum of the first cart is 2 kg*m/s (mass of 1 kg multiplied by velocity of 2 m/s) and the momentum of the second cart is -1 kg*m/s (mass of 1 kg multiplied by velocity of -1 m/s). The negative sign indicates the opposite direction of motion.
After the collision, the carts stick together and have a combined mass of 2 kg. Let's assume their final velocity is v m/s. The total momentum after the collision is then equal to 2 kg * v m/s.
Setting the total momentum before the collision equal to the total momentum after the collision, we have:
2 kg*m/s + (-1 kg*m/s) = 2 kg * v m/s
1 kg*m/s = 2 kg * v m/s
v = 0.5 m/s
Therefore, the correct answer is 0.5 m/s.Rate this question:

- D.
none of these
Correct Answer
C. Twice as largeExplanation
When an object has more mass, its momentum increases. Momentum is directly proportional to mass, so if the mass of the cart is doubled while its speed remains the same, its momentum will also double. Therefore, the correct answer is "twice as large".Rate this question:

The firing of a bullet by a rifle causes the rifle to recoil backwards. The speed of the rifle's recoil is smaller than the bullet's forward speed because the ___.
- A.
Force against the rifle is relatively small
- B.
Speed is mainly concentrated in the bullet
- C.
Rifle has lots of mass
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
C. Rifle has lots of massExplanation
The correct answer is that the rifle has lots of mass. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the bullet is fired forward with a high speed, it exerts a force on the rifle in the opposite direction, causing the rifle to recoil backwards. The speed of the rifle's recoil is smaller because the rifle has a larger mass compared to the bullet. This means that the rifle requires more force to accelerate, resulting in a slower recoil speed.Rate this question:

Two objects, A and B, have the same size and shape. Object A is twice as massive as B. The objects are simultaneously dropped from a high window on a tall building. (Neglect the effect air resistance.) The objects will reach the ground at the same time but object A will have a greater ___. Choose all that apply.
- A.
Speed
- B.
Acceleration
- C.
Momentum
- D.
None of the above quantities will be greater
Correct Answer
C. MomentumExplanation
The objects will reach the ground at the same time because their size and shape are the same. However, object A is twice as massive as object B, meaning it has more mass. Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity, so object A will have a greater momentum due to its greater mass. Speed and acceleration are not affected by mass, so they will be the same for both objects. Therefore, the correct answer is momentum.Rate this question:

- C.
Both A and B
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Both A and BExplanation
Padded dashboards increase the impact time during collisions, which helps to reduce the force exerted on the occupants. This is because the padding absorbs some of the energy from the impact, spreading it out over a longer period of time. As a result, both the impact time and force are decreased, making padded dashboards safer than non-padded ones.Rate this question:

A relatively large force acting for a relatively long amount of time on a relatively small mass will produce a relatively ______. List all that apply.
- A.
Small velocity change
- B.
large velocity change
- C.
Small momentum change
- D.
Small acceleration
Correct Answer
B. large velocity changeExplanation
When a relatively large force acts for a relatively long amount of time on a relatively small mass, it will result in a large velocity change. This is because the force will accelerate the mass, causing it to change its velocity significantly. The larger the force and the longer it acts, the greater the velocity change will be. Therefore, a large velocity change is the expected outcome in this scenario.Rate this question:

A 5-N force is applied to a 3-kg ball to change its velocity from +9 m/s to +3 m/s. This impulse causes the momentum change of the ball to be ____ kg•m/s.
- A.
-2.5
- B.
-10
- C.
-18
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
C. -18Explanation
When a force is applied to an object, it causes a change in its momentum. The impulse experienced by the object is equal to the change in momentum. In this case, the initial momentum of the ball is calculated by multiplying its mass (3 kg) by its initial velocity (+9 m/s), resulting in a momentum of 27 kg·m/s. The final momentum is calculated by multiplying the mass (3 kg) by the final velocity (+3 m/s), resulting in a momentum of 9 kg·m/s. The change in momentum is then determined by subtracting the final momentum from the initial momentum, resulting in a change of -18 kg·m/s. Therefore, the correct answer is -18.Rate this question:

A 5-N force is applied to a 3-kg ball to change its velocity from +9 m/s to +3 m/s. The impulse experienced by the ball is ____ N•s.
- A.
-2.5
- B.
-10
- C.
-45
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
C. -45Explanation
The impulse experienced by an object can be calculated using the equation Impulse = Force * Change in Time. In this question, the force applied to the ball is 5 N. The change in velocity is the final velocity (3 m/s) minus the initial velocity (9 m/s), which is -6 m/s. Since impulse is equal to force multiplied by change in time, and change in time is equal to mass multiplied by change in velocity, we can use the equation Impulse = Force * Change in Time = Force * (Mass * Change in Velocity). Plugging in the values, we get Impulse = 5 N * (3 kg * -6 m/s) = -45 N·s. Therefore, the correct answer is -45.Rate this question:

A 5-N force is applied to a 3-kg ball to change its velocity from +9 m/s to +3 m/s. The impulse is encountered by the ball for a time of ____ seconds.
- A.
1.8
- B.
2.5
- C.
3.6
- D.
None of these
Correct Answer
C. 3.6Explanation
The impulse experienced by an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object. The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the initial momentum of the ball is 3 kg * 9 m/s = 27 kg*m/s, and the final momentum is 3 kg * 3 m/s = 9 kg*m/s. The change in momentum is therefore 27 kg*m/s - 9 kg*m/s = 18 kg*m/s. The impulse is also equal to the force applied to the object multiplied by the time it is applied. In this case, the force is 5 N. Therefore, the time can be calculated by dividing the impulse by the force: 18 kg*m/s / 5 N = 3.6 s.Rate this question:
