MOMENTUM & IMPULSE
IMPULSE-MOMENTUM THEOREM
J = F(∆t) = ∆p = m∆v = (mvf – mvi)
The impulse, J, that acts on an object is equal to the
change in the object’s momentum, ∆p.
Remember, ∆
means
final – initial
∆p = pf – pi
∆v = vf – vi
EXAMPLE
A baseball player bunts (hits softly) a 0.144 kg baseball
thrown at 43.0 m/s. If the bat exerts an average force
of 6500 N on the ball for 0.00122 s, what is the final
speed of the ball?
Given: m = 0.144 kg
vi = -43.0 m/s
F = 6500 N
t = 0.00122 s
Unknown: vf = ?
Equation: F(∆t) = ∆p = (mvf – mvi)
Substitute: (6500 N)(0.00122s) = 0.144kg(v + 43.0 m/s)
Solve: vf = 12.1 m/s
YOU TRY
A soccer ball has a momentum of 2.5 kg*m/s. You
then apply and impulse of 10 N*s. What is the soccer
ball’s final momentum?
Given: pi = 2.5 kg*m/s
J = 10 N*s
Unknown: pf = ?
Equation: J = ∆p = (pf – pi)
Substitute: 10 N*s= pf – 2.5 kg*m/s
Solve: pf = 12.5 kg*m/s

Before collision After collision
ELASTIC COLLISIONSThe objects bounce off each other!
m1v1i + m2v2i = m1v1f + m2v2f
Before collision After collision
INELASTIC COLLISIONSThe objects stick together!
m1v1i + m2v2i = m1v1f + m2v2f

A 0.014kg red bouncy ball is traveling at a velocity
of 1.2 m/s to the right. It collides elastically with a
initially stationary blue bouncy ball (mass of 0.011
kg). If the red ball has a final velocity of 0.5 m/s to
the left, what is the final velocity of the blue ball? G: m1 = 0.014kg
