Momentum
Momentum Collisions between objects can be evaluated using the laws of conservation of energy and of momentum. Momentum is defined as p = mv (units: kg m/s) Think of momentum as a measure of a moving objects resistance to change in motion.
Momentum Changing the momentum of an object requires a force The change in momentum is called the impulse FΔt = Δp Area under force-time graph is impulse Conservation of Momentum the total momentum of a system is conserved p i = p f Momentum is always conserved in collisions Momentum is always conserved in propulsion (like rocketry or particle decay or nuclear fission)
Momentum Elastic Collisions Kinetic energy is conserved KE i = KE f Occur in objects hard enough for no thermal energy to be produced At the instant of collision, all energy is elastic potential Elastic collision occur on the atomic scale, but are an idealization for larger objects To solve, set up a conservation of momentum equation and a conservation of kinetic energy equation, then solve system of equations
Inelastic Collisions Momentum Objects collide and then move as separate object, most of the time moving in the same general direction Objects lose some kinetic energy during collision Becomes thermal or sound or maybe light Perfectly Inelastic Collisions Objects do not separate after collision Treat them as one object in the final terms of your equation
Glancing collisions Momentum Sometimes collisions will be in one dimension, but most of the time you will be asked to solve twodimensional collision problems Momentum is a vector Break it down into x- and y-components Set up conservation of momentum equation for each direction, solve Use vector addition (Pythagorean Theorem, inverse tangent) when needed

Circular Motion and Gravitation
Circular Motion and Uniform Circular Motion Movement of an object on a circular path with a constant speed Velocity vector is tangent to the circle Centripetal Acceleration Gravitation Velocity is always changing object always changes direction Acceleration points towards the center of the circle a c = v 2 /r Acceleration is constant for uniform circular motion
Circular Motion and Centripetal Force Gravitation The net force on an object moving in uniform circular motion is the centripetal force F = F c = ma c Points towards the center of the circle (same direction as the acceleration) Other forces can take the role of the centripetal force If force is removed, object will continue in the path of the velocity vector, tangent to the circle
Circular Motion and Non-Uniform Circular Motion When speed around the circle is not constant, there is a changing acceleration The net force will not point directly to the center Break the net force down to components Radial component Gravitation Tangential component Similarly, break the acceleration vector down to components
Circular Motion and Gravitation Newton s Law of Universal Gravitation For both masses, the magnitude of the attractive force between them is F G = G(m 1 m 2 /r 2 ) G is the universal constant 6.67x10-11 N m 2 /kg 2 This equation works for any two objects anywhere in the universe, even on the surface of Earth
Circular Motion and Gravitation Kepler s First Law of Planetary Motion Planetary pathways are elliptical, orbiting around the Sun, which is at one focus of the ellipse
Circular Motion and Gravitation Kepler s Second Law of Planetary Motion An imaginary line from the Sun to the planet sweeps out equal areas in equal period of time Planets move faster when they re closer to the Sun and slower when they re farther away
Circular Motion and Gravitation Kepler s Third Law of Planetary Motion The ratio of the cube of a planet s mean distance from the Sun to the square of its period is constant for all planets (R 1 ) 3 /(T 1 ) 2 = (R 2 ) 3 /(T 2 ) 2 Period time (in seconds) for one revolution Frequency number of revolutions per second Inversely related f = 1/T and T = 1/f

Rotational Motion
Rotational Motion Linear Displacement (m) Δx = x f x i Velocity (m/s) v = Δx/Δt Acceleration (m/s 2 ) a = Δv/Δt Rotational Angular Displacement (rad) Δθ = θ f - θ i Angular Velocity (rad/s) ω = Δθ/Δt Angular Acceleration (rad/s 2 ) α = Δω/Δt

Rotational Motion Torque tendency of a force to cause rotation The perpendicular component of a force applied to an object causes rotational motion τ = F r sinθ Counterclockwise torque is, by convention, a positive quantity; clockwise is negative Use right-hand rule to determine direction (curl fingers in direction of rotation, thumb points in direction of torque)
