  2. Introduction • Collisions • Impulse and Linear Momentum • Single Collision • Series of Collisions • Momentum and Kinetic Energy • Inelastic Collisions in One Dimension • One-Dimensional Collision • Completely Inelastic Collision • Elastic Collisions in One Dimension • Collisions in Two Dimensions Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  3. Center of Mass for a System of Particles The center of mass of a body or a system of bodies moves as though all of the mass were concentrated there and all external forces were applied there. 2 bodies, 1 dimension n bodies, 3 dimensions n bodies, 3 dimensions, vector equation Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  4. Center of Mass for a Solid Body Differential mass element dm Uniform density Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  5. Newton’s 2nd Law for a System of Particles System of particles A firework rocket explodes A grand jeté Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  6. Linear Momentum Particle System Conservation of Linear Momentum If no net external force acts on a system of particles, the total linear momentum P of the system cannot change. If the component of the net external force on a closed system is zero along an axis, then the component of the linear momentum along that axis cannot change. Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  7. Impulse and Linear Momentum Definition of Impulse Collision of two particle-like bodies Impulse–Linear Momentum Theorem Steady stream of projectiles Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  8. Momentum and Kinetic Energy • Closed system (no mass enters or leaves) • Isolated system (no external net force) • Elastic collision (kinetic energy conserved) • Inelastic collision (kinetic energy not conserved) • Completely inelastic collision (bodies always stick together) In a closed, isolated system containing a collision, the linear momentum of each colliding body may change but the total momentum of the system cannot change, whether the collision is elastic or inelastic.

  9. Inelastic Collisions in 1D Conservation of Linear Momentum Completely Inelastic Collision Velocity of Center of Mass Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research

  10. Elastic Collisions in 1D In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of each colliding body may change, but the total kinetic energy of the system does not change. Stationary Target Moving Target Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research
