  1. Let’s start with everyday language What do you say when a sports team is on a roll? They may not have the lead but they may have ___________ MOMENTUM A team that has momentum is hard to stop.

  2. Momentum

  3. Newton’s First Law A body in motion stays in motion…unless acted upon by an unbalanced force Momentum will only deal with inertia in motion

  4. Which hurts more if he hits you? Use the words mass and velocity

  5. What is Momentum? An object with a lot of momentum is also hard to stop Momentum: p = mass x velocity Units: kg∙m/s Momentum is also a vector (it has direction)

  6. True or False? P=mv Something massive moving fast carries a lot of momentum • True

  7. True or False P=mv Something REALLY massive moving slowly carries a lot of momentum. • True

  8. True or False P= mv Something with little mass doesn’t carry much momentum unless it goes fast • True

  9. True or False P=mv An object at rest has a very small amount of momentum • False, it has no momentum

  10. Review Which has greater momentum? Bubble Wrecking Ball

  11. Let’s practice P=mv • A 1200 kg car drives west at 25 m/s. What is the car’s momentum? • Identify the variables: • 1200 kg = mass • 25m/s, west = velocity P = mv = 1200 kg x 25 m/s = 30 000 kg- m/s, west

  12. A Project • Get with your partner • Divide your paper into 8 squares (hotdog, hamburger, hamburger) • On the top put objects with a lot of momentum • On the bottom, their opposites

  13. Momentum LARGE AMT OF MOMENTUM Large Mass Large Mass High Velocity High Velocity SMALL AMT OF MOMENTUM Small Mass Small Mass Low Velocity Low Velocity
