ENGINEERING SCIENCES (PHYSICS AND MECHANICS)

Impulse & Momentum

Linear Momentum – is the product of its mass and velocity.

Impulse – is the product of the force and time during which it acts.

1. Momentum = mv = (w/g)/v 2. Impulse = Ft


where: m = mass v = velocity F = impulsive force t = time, sec

3. Law of Conservation of Momentum

m1v1 + m2v2 = m1’ v1’ + m2’ v2’

where: v1 & v2 = are velocities before impact

v1’ & v2’ = are velocities after impact

Note: When two bodies are coupled together after impact,

their velocities after impact are equal.

If stationary, the velocity is zero.

4. Coefficient of restitution

Is the ratio between the relative speeds of two colliding objects after and before they collide.

5. If the object is hanging:

CENTRIFUGAL FORCE

Centrifugal Force – is the force that tends to move rotating bodies away from the center of
rotation.

Centripetal Force – is the force that tends to move rotating bodies towards the center of
rotation.

aT = Tangential acceleration = dv/dt

a = total acceleration =

Centrifugal Force

1. If the object is moving in a circular horizontal track:


Fc = ma = = m lbs or N

Where:

v = velocity, m/s r = radius of curvature, m

f = coefficient of friction a = acceleration, m/s2

m = mass, kg W = weight, N

g = 9.81m/s2 = 32.2 ft/s2

For circular vertical rotation of object:

1. If the object position is on top:


Fc = T + W T = Fc - W
Where: W = weight T = cable tension

2. If the object position is at the bottom:


T = Fc + W

Banking Curves:

R = radius of curvature x = side thrust friction
ϴ= super elevation angle or banking angle h = super elevation

collisions? The weight of the car is 56.8 kN.

2. Two particles moving in the same direction collide, stick together, and continue their motion
together. Each particle has a mass of 25g and their respective velocities before the collision
were 10m/s and 100m/s. What is the energy of the system after the collision?

3. Two masses collide in a perfectly inelastic collision. Given the data in the illustration, find the
velocity and direction of motion of the resulting combines mass.

from an initial height, h1.

the ball rebound?

direction (i.e., the direction of his travel) increases at the rate of 1.5m/s2. What is the most
nearly the cyclist’s total acceleration?
