    Center of Mass (Momentum, Impulse, and Collision)

    Uploaded by

    Ann Margarette Morales
    The document summarizes key concepts relating to center of mass, momentum, impulse, and collisions. It defines center of mass as the single point where any uniform force on an object is concentrated. Momentum is defined as the quantity of motion of an object with both magnitude and direction. Impulse is the measure of how quickly force changes in both magnitude and direction. The document also provides sample problems and formulas for calculating center of mass, impulse, and momentum.

    SAMPLE PROBLEMS

    Center of Mass

    1. Two point masses 3kg and 5kg are at 4m and 8m from the
     origin on X-axis. Locate the position of center of mass of
    the two point masses from:
    a.) the origin;
    b.) 3kg mass.
    MOMENTUM- The quantity of motion of an object
    that has both a magnitude and a direction.
    SOLUTION:
    IMPULSE- A measure of how quickly force changes Given: m 1=3 kg and m 2=5 kg
    in magnitude AND direction. a.) from the origin,
    So x 1=4 m and x 2=8 m
    COLLISION- two objects coming into each other m 1 x 1 +m 2 x 2
    for a very short period. x com=
    m 1 +m 2
    ( 3∗4 )+(5∗8)
    x com=
    3+5
    FORMULAS
    52
    x com= =6.5 m
    8
    b.) from 3kg mass,
    So x 1=0 m and x 2=4 m

    1. FOR X-AXIS
    Impulse
    2. FOR Y-AXIS
    2. A baseball is struck by a bat with a force of 3000N
    for a duration of 0.05s. What is the impulse of the
    3. FOR POINT OBJECT
    baseball?
    4. FOR GEOMETRIC SHAPE
    SOLUTION:
    I. MOMENTUM
    J = Ft

    II. IMPULSE J = (3000N)(0.05s)

    J = 150 Ns
