Momentum

QuestionAnswer
product of mass x velocity momentum
SI units for momentum kg*m/s
amount of matter an object has mass
SI unit for mass kg
amount of mass times gravity weight
SI unit for weight Newton
objects hit each other and bounce off one another elastic collision
objects hit each other and stick together inelastic collision
the change of momentum when force acts on an object for a specific unit of time impulse
anything that can cause object to accelerate or be displaced force
this is conserved in only elastic collisions kinetic energy & total momentum
this is conserved in all collisions total momentum
car safety feature that works by having you and the car share the same momentum seat belts
car safety feature that works by increasing the time of impact to lessen the force air bags
this states that total momentum is same before and after a collision in a closed system law of conservation of momentum
ways that energy is lost in an inelastic collision heat, sound, or deformation
tendency of an object to resist a change in its motion inertia
Force = mass x acceleration 2nd law of motion

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
