The mosquito sticks to the front of the car. Justify all answers thoroughly. a. Did the total momentum of the car-mosquito system increase, decrease, or remain the same? Why? Remains the same becausemomentum is conserved in the absence of externalforces b. Did the momentum of the mosquito increase, decrease, or remain the same? Why? 1 Jan starts at rest and Teymosavito c. Did the momentum of the car increase, decrease, or remain the same? Why? as the car transfers momentum reeesmsjqt.tt d. Which changed its velocity more in the collision, the car or the mosquito (or did they change by the same amount?). Why? The mosquito as its smaller mass causes a greatervelocitychange e. Which changed its momentum by more in the collision, the car or the mosquito? (or did they change by the same amount?) Why? the momentum lost59min it smogma.tn amaisfn si tu f. Which experience a greater impulse in the collision, the car or the mosquito? (or did they change by the same amount?) same Why? for both Impulse is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction for the car and mosquito Newton's third law 2. Rank these three objects in increasing order of impulse, beginning with the smallest, and increasing order of force acting on the object beginning with the smallest. Object A Object B Object C m = 5.0 kg m = 10.0 kg m = 4.0 kg vi = 4.0 m/s vi = 2.0 m/s vi = 5.0 m/s vf = -2.0 m/s vf = -2.0 m/s vf = -2.0 m/s t = 12.0 s t = 5.0 s t = 2.0 s Impulse: 2 A: ______________ 3 B: _____________ 1 C: ______________ Force: 1 A: ______________ 2 B: _____________ 3 C: ______________ A 5.0kg 2.0 40m s 30.0ns A F 30 122.5N B 10.0kg 2.0 2 0 m s 40.0ns B F 4015 8N 4.0kg 2.0 5.0 m s 28.0Ns C F 28 2 14N 3.

Cars have crumple zones to minimize the force the driver experiences in a collision. Using the impulse-momentum theorem, explain how crumple zones decrease the force. Crumplezones increase of byabsorbing energyduringimpact which reduces the force experienced by the driver Extra Help Problems: These problems aren’t required but are designed to provide additional practice Impulse Graph 1 Impulse Graph 2 Explosion Collision Inelastic Collision Inelastic Collision Inelastic Collision 1 2 3 Link Here Link Here Link Here Link Here Link Here Link Here
