Impulse and Momentum

Question 1

is the force exerted when two objects collide.

Answer 1

Force of Impact

Question 2

As the product of force and the time duration it is applied, which changes an object’s momentum.

Answer 2

Impulse

Question 3

AS the product of an object’s mass and velocity

Answer 3

Momentum

Question 4

Heavier objects tend to excert a greater force upon impact.

Answer 4

Mass of an Object

Question 5

The faster an object moves, the greater the momentum and impact force

Answer 5

Velocity (speed)

Question 6

Softer materials absorb more impact, increasing the time of impact and reducing force.

Answer 6

Surface Material

Question 7

A longer impact duration (such as airbags in cars) reduces the force experienced.

Answer 7

Impulse and Impact Time

Question 8

Reducing force by spreading momentum change, preventing serious injuries.

Answer 8

Protective Gear extend Impact Time

Question 9

An airbag increases the time of impacts BLANK needed to change momentum, making the crash

Answer 9

Reducing the Force, Less severe
