15. The speed for an object to escape the Earth's gravity is called the escape velocity. This speed is calculated from energy considerations. An object must have enough kinetic energy to overcome the gravitational potential energy. For a 20 kg satellite in a circular orbit around the Earth at a distance of 7x105 m from the center, we find the orbital speed to be 6.75x103 m/sec. From that location calculate the gravitational PE, the kinetic energy and the escape velocity. m1 = 20kg m2 = 6x1024 d = 7x105

MEarth = 6x1024 kg G = 6.67x10-11

Science Physics Unit 08: Momentum and Energy inCollisions

Momentum is defined as p = mv where p is the symbol for momentum, m is the symbol for mass, and v is the

symbol for velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity and points in the direction of the direction of the velocity.

• Momentum has units of kg m/sec. A large mass moving at a high velocity has a large momentum.

Impulse is defined as J = Fav Δt where J is the impulse, Fav is the average force over an event (collision) over

a time period Δt. The time interval is normally short but that is not a real restriction. Impulse uses the same

units as momentum and, in normal usage, an impulse is given to an object producing a change in momentum.

• Thus J = Δp for an object involved in a collision type event.

Conservation of Momentum is a law regarding the total momentum of a system when external forces can be

neglected. The most common use of this law is in describing features of collisions. The simplest of these events is a head on collision between two objects. In that situation the total momentum of the colliding objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision.

• Totally Elastic Collision is a collision where kinetic energy is conserved. This is an ideal situation because some kinetic energy is almost always lost in a collision.

• Totally Inelastic Collision is a collision where the two (or more) colliding objects stick together after the collision.

• Coefficient of Restitution (e) is a term sometimes used to indicate the relative elasticity of collisions. It is defined as the ratio of the departing relative velocity of colliding object to the approaching relative velocity. The values range from 1 for a perfectly elastic collision to 0 for a perfectly inelastic collision. Kinetic energy will be lost in this type collision.

2. Thermal Energy: energy of temperature U –Internal energy of a system (like an engine) is the total

of KE and PE of molecules –formally more than the thermal energy but often the same. Official term in engines and gasses.

Q –Heat –transfer of energy due to a temperature difference – officially only called heat in transit

Heat "flows" from high temperature to low temperature until thermal equilibrium (same temperature) is reached.

Conduction –requires matter but mass does not move, similar to electricity, electrons carry energy

Convection –requires matter- mass moves carrying energy Radiation –does not require matter –electromagnetic

waves carry energy –black absorbs and emits better. Mirror –white reflect. Hot emits more energy

4. Expansion: most substances expand as temperature rises: solids least, gasses most

Used in thermometers, thermostats ΔL = αL0 ΔT –change in length proportional to length L0 and ΔT:

α is constant depending upon type of material. Bi-metallic strip had metals of different α : linear coefficient of expansion

ΔV = 3αV0 ΔT –change in volume is proportional to original volume V0 and ΔT: 3α is volume expansion coefficient – for gasses and liquids β substitutes for 3α in the equation

Water's behavior is unusual since it has maximum density (minimum volume) at 40C. Thus as it gets near freezing temperature it floats and freezes –from the top down, most things freeze from the bottom up. Water also expands upon freezing –forming hollow ringed structures

5. Phase Change: Energy is required to change a solid to a liquid and from a liquid to a vapor

Phases are solid, liquid, and vapor: for water it takes 80 calories per gram to melt or freeze water and 540 calories to vaporize water. Since this energy is hidden (doesn’t change the temperature) it is called latent heat of –fusion, vaporization

The heat of fusion and vaporization are basically the energy necessary to break the solid structure bonds for fusion and the bonds between molecules for vaporization. This is analogous to breaking through the surface tension energy for evaporation. In a related thought, boiling involves forming bubbles in the depth of the liquid. This temperature increases with increased air pressure. Water boils at lower temperature in the mountains

Practice: Thermochemistry45. Convert 500C to Kelvin temperature. add 273 and get 323 Thus 500C = 323 Kelvin46. Helium gas atoms have a mass of 6.8 x 10-27 kg. What is the

speed of a He atom in a gas at 00C? (1/2 mv2)average = 3/2 kT : .5 (6.8 x 10-27)(v2) = 1.5(1.38 x 10-23)

(273) vave = 1.3 km/sec: a heavier atom would be slower, and at a

higher temperature faster.47. Sand has a specific heat of 0.5cal/gram0C. How many

calories does it take to raise the temperature of 100 g of sand from 600C to 700 C?

• Q = m c ΔT Q = 100(.5)(10) = 500 calories.

48. How much would this amount of heat energy (example 3) raise the temperature of 100

grams of water?Q = m c ΔT : ΔT = Q / (m c) = 500/100 = 5 0C49. How much energy does is required to take 10 grams of

ice at 00C and produce 10 grams of steam at 1000C.For 1 gram it takes 80 calories to melt, 100 calories to heat

the water to 1000C and 540 calories to change it into steam. Thus, for 1 gram it takes 720 calories. For 10 grams it would take 7,200 calories or 7.2 Calories (with a capital C).

51. Water has a higher specific heat capacity than sand. Which will cool down faster in the evening

and warm up faster in the morning Sun?Sand heats and cools faster. How does this influence the direction of the winds on

the beach in the day and night?Hot air rises, so in the morning as the sand temperature

increases the beach air risespulling in air from the ocean. So the wind blows in from

the ocean in the day and out at night

52. Water boils at a lower temperature in the mountains than at sea level. The primary reason is that

• a. The temperature in the mountains is cooler• b. The air pressure is less in the mountains• c. The air is cleaner with less pollution• d. The water is purer in the mountains than

from the faucet

53. Compare the temperature of a glass of ice water (stirred completely) nearly full of ice compared to a glass of ice water (stirred completely) half full of ice.

• a. The nearly full of ice glass is colder• b. The half full of ice glass is colder• c. They are at the same temperature• Explain:• The ice water mixture will be at the melting-

freezing temperature of water.

55. Calculate the energy to convert 50g of ice at 00C to water at 500C.

• M = 50 grams ΔT = 500C• Q = (Latent Heat of fusion )( mass) + m c ΔT =

80(50) + 50 (1) (50) = 6500 calories = 6.5 kcal

56. A bag of Peanut M&M’s has 220 Calories. If this was used to heat the body of a 50 kg girl

(assume all water), how many degrees Celsius would it raise her body temperature? (These are kilocalories.)

• Q = 220 Calories (big calories) Q = m c ΔT• thus ΔT = Q/mc = 220,000cal /(50,000 g)(1)• ΔT = 4.4 0C

57. What is the final temperature when 100g of water at 250C is mixed with 75g of water at 400C ?

• Since no latent heats, we can consider this a straight conservation of energy. The number of calories add to a total. Q1 + Q2 = Qtotal

• Q = m c T and c is 1 for water • m1 = 100 g T1 = 25 0C • m2 = 75 g T2 = 40 0C m1T1

+ m2T2 = (m1 + m2 ) Tfinal

• (100) (20) + (75)( 40) = 175 (Tfinal)• Tfinal = 31.4 0C

58. Steel expands 1 part in 100,000 for each 10C increase in temperature (α = 1 x 10-5 /0C). If the 1.5-km main span of a steel suspension bridge has no expansion joints, how much longer will it be for a temperature increase of 200C?

α = 1 x 10-5 /0C ΔL = αL0 ΔT ΔT = 200C

ΔL = αL0 ΔT = (1 x 10-5) (1500m) 20 = 0.3 m

60. In one cycle, an engine burning a mixture of air and alcohol absorbs 525 J and expels 415 J. What is the engine’s efficiency?

• Qhot = 525 J• Qcold = 415 J

• Although not asked, we need the Work = 525-415 = 110 J

• efficiency = Work/Qhot = 110/525 = .21
