- Which of the following is not a correct
statement.
- If colliding objects are treated as a single
system, then the net force acting on the
system is zero.
- The impulse acting on an object is equal to the
change of momentum of the object.
- Momentum of colliding objects is always
conserved.
- If the net force acting on an object is zero,
then its momentum is conserved.
- During a completely elastic collision, some of
the kinetic energy of the colliding objects
is converted to heat energy.
Answer: E
- Calculate the momentum of an object of
mass 18 kg if its kinetic energy is 60 J.
- 46.476 kg m ⁄ s
- 57.188 kg m ⁄ s
- 12.972 kg m ⁄ s
- 70.713 kg m ⁄ s
- 38.252 kg m ⁄ s
Answer: A
- After a bullet of mass 0.02 kg is fired into a
ballistic pendulum of mass 1.5 kg, the bullet is embedded
in the pendulum and the pendulum rose to a height of 0.05 m.
Calulate the speed of the pendulum just after the collision.
- 0.99 m ⁄ s
- 1.843 m ⁄ s
- 1.504 m ⁄ s
- 1.196 m ⁄ s
- 1.353 m ⁄ s
Answer: A
- After a bullet of mass 0.035 kg is fired into a
ballistic pendulum of mass 1.5 kg, the bullet is embedded
in the pendulum and the pendulum rose to a height of 0.1 m.
Calulate the speed with which the bullet was fired into the
ballistic pendulum.
- 44.806 m ⁄ s
- 77.114 m ⁄ s
- 61.4 m ⁄ s
- 87.099 m ⁄ s
- 113.496 m ⁄ s
Answer: C
- An object of mass 9 kg going to the right with
a speed of 12 m ⁄ s collides with a(n) 16 kg object at rest.
If the collision is completely elastic,
calculate the speed of the 16 kg object after collision.
- 15.685 m ⁄ s
- 1.161 m ⁄ s
- 12.923 m ⁄ s
- 2.938 m ⁄ s
- 8.64 m ⁄ s
Answer: E
- An object of mass 3 kg going to the right with
a speed of 24 m ⁄ s collides with a(n) 8 kg object going in
the same direction with a speed of 29 m ⁄ s. If the collision
is completely elastic, calculate the speed of the 8 kg
object after collision.
- 15.631 m ⁄ s
- 28.958 m ⁄ s
- 42.49 m ⁄ s
- 26.273 m ⁄ s
- 39.738 m ⁄ s
Answer: D
- An object of mass 19 kg going to the right with
a speed of 21 m ⁄ s collides with a(n) 12 kg object going to
the left with a speed of 23 m ⁄ s. If the collision
is completely elastic, calculate the speed of the 12 kg
object after collision.
- 30.935 m ⁄ s
- 35.162 m ⁄ s
- 8.412 m ⁄ s
- 22.786 m ⁄ s
- 41.876 m ⁄ s
Answer: A
- An object of mass 19 kg going to the right with
a speed of 29 m ⁄ s collides with a(n) 12 kg object at rest.
After collision the 19 kg object moves with a speed of 19 m ⁄ s
making an angle of 60 degree with the horizontal-right.
Calculate the x-component of the velocity of the 12 kg
object after collision.
- 46.204 m ⁄ s
- 53.914 m ⁄ s
- 19.076 m ⁄ s
- 22.983 m ⁄ s
- 30.875 m ⁄ s
Answer: E
- An object of mass 9 kg going to the right with
a speed of 28 m ⁄ s collides with a(n) 10 kg object at rest.
After collision the 9 kg object moves with a speed of 20 m ⁄ s
making an angle of 20 degree with the horizontal-right.
Calculate the y-component of the velocity of the 10 kg
object after collision.
- -0.927 m ⁄ s
- -6.156 m ⁄ s
- -8.037 m ⁄ s
- -2.885 m ⁄ s
- -5.323 m ⁄ s
Answer: B
- An object of mass 7 kg going to towards north with
a speed of 28 m ⁄ s collides with a(n) 28 kg object
going east with a speed of 33 m ⁄ s. After collision
the 7 kg object moves with a speed of 11 m ⁄ s making
an angle of 50 degree with the horizontal-right. Calculate
the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the 28 kg
object after collision.
- 39.027 m ⁄ s, 7.431 deg
- 29.906 m ⁄ s, 8.905 deg
