    Unit IX: Test - v1


    For each of the situations outlined below in questions 1-4 compare (a>b, a<b, or a=b) the
    momentum of sphere A and sphere B. Then offer a brief explanation supporting your response.

    6. A rifle recoils while firing a bullet. The speed of the rifle's recoil is small because the
    a. force against the rifle is small compared to the force on the bullet.
    b. speed is mainly concentrated in the bullet.
    c. rifle has lots of mass.
    d. momentum of the rifle is unchanged.
    e. none of these

    __7. In order to catch a ball, a baseball player moves his or her hand backward in the direction of
    the ball's motion. Doing this reduces the force of impact on the player's hand principally
    because it
    a. increases the impact time.
    b. decreases the impulse on the glove.
    c. decreases the change in momentum of the ball.
    d. all of the above
    e. none of the above

    __8. A 1.0 kg chunk of putty moving at 1.0 m/s collides and sticks to a 5 kg bowling ball that is
    initially at rest. The magnitude of the momentum of the ball and putty after collision is
    a. 0.0 kgm/s.
    b. 1.0 kgm/s.
    c. less than 1 kgm/s.
    d. 5.0 kgm/s.
    e. more than 5.0 kgm/s.

    __9. A golf ball moving forward with a momentum of 1.0 kgm/s strikes and bounces backward
    off a heavy bowling ball that is initially at rest and free to move. The momentum of the
    bowling ball after collision is
    a. less than 1.0 kgm/s.
    b. more than 1.0 kgm/s.
    c. 1.0 kgm/s.
    d. not enough information provided
    e. none of the above

    10. A 150 g baseball is thrown toward home plate with a speed of 30 m/s. The batter hits the ball
    directly back at the pitcher with a speed of 40. m/s.
    a. Sketch a motion map to describe the motion of the baseball.

    b. What is the change in momentum of the ball?

    c. If the bat is in contact with the ball for 5.0 x 10-3 s, what is the average force exerted on the
    ball during the collision?

    d. How does the force of the bat on the ball compare to the force the ball exerts on the bat?
    Explain.

    11. A 5.0 kg ball moving at 8.0 m/s strikes an 85kg man on the chest and bounces back at 2.0 m/s.
    a. Is the collision elastic or inelastic? Explain.

    b. If the man (who is wearing high quality roller blades) was originally at rest, what is his final
    velocity?

    12. Suppose two clowns on skateboards


    are standing motionless on a smooth
    surface 2.0 m apart. Clown B tosses
    a 5.0 kg medicine ball to clown A.
    The medicine ball is traveling with a
    speed of 10. m/s.

    a. What is the resulting velocity of


    clown B after throwing the ball?
    (Be sure to indicate which
    direction is positive.)

    b. What is the resulting velocity of clown A after catching the ball?

    13. In a situation like your practicum, two carts were initially at rest and side-by-side between two
    photogates. The mass of cart 1 was 0.505 kg. The spring was activated and the two carts moved
    away from one another, passing through the photogates and producing the readings as shown
    below. Determine the mass of cart 2.
