The Take-Home Message on
Chapter 10
If two bodies are exerting STRONG forces on each
other over a short period of time, then you have a
collision problem.
Linear Momentum is ALWAYS conserved.
Kinetic Energy is NOT always conserved.
– Kinetic Energy is conserved during an elastic collision.
– Kinetic Energy is not necessarily conserved during an
inelastic collision.
Impulse-Linear Momentum Theorem
– Relates strength and duration of collision force to
change in momentum
– Similar to Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem

Problem Types
Impulse and Linear Momentum
– Series of Collisions
Elastic Collision
– 1-D
– 2-D
– Moving Target vs. Stationary Target
Inelastic Collision
– 1-D
– 2-D
How to Solve Them
Impulse and Linear Momentum
– Use Conservation of Momentum
– Impulse-Linear Momentum Theorem
Series of Collisions
– Use Equation (10-10)
Elastic Collisions
– Use Conservation of Momentum
– Use Conservation of Kinetic Energy
– In Two Dimensions Treat Momentums as
Vector Quantities (x,y), and Solve as Usual
Problem #1
A 283g air-track glider
moving at 69 m/s on a 24 m
long air track collides
elastically with a 467g glider
at rest in the middle of the
horizontal track.
The end of the track over which the struck glider moves
is not frictionless, and the glider moves with a
coefficient of friction =0.02 with respect to the track.
Will the glider reach the end of the track? Neglect the
length of the glider.
Problem #1 Solution
m1 = 0.283 kg
m2 = 0.467 kg

(0.283 kg)(0.69 m/s)2 = (0.283 kg)(v1f)2 + (0.467 kg)(v2f)2
0.1445(v1f)2 + 0.2335(v2f)2 = 0.0674
Problem #1 Solution (cont.)
Pi = Pf
m1v1i = m1v1f + m2v2f
(0.283 kg)(0.69 m/s) = (0.283 kg)(-v1f) + (0.467 kg)(v2f)
v1f = -0.69 m/s + (1.65)v2f
Two Equations and Two Unknowns
0.1415 (-0.69 m/s + 1.65v2f)2 + 0.2335(v2f)2 = 0.067
Solve to find that v2f = 0.525 m/s
Substitute this to Solve for Kinetic Energy of Struck Glider
K = 1/2 m2(v2f)2 = 1/2 (0.467)(0.525)2
KE of struck glider = 0.064 J
Problem #1 Solution (cont.)
Ffriction = μN = μm2g
= (0.02)(0.467 kg)(9.8 m/s2)
= 0.0915 N
Work Done by Friction = (0.0915 N)(1.2 m) =
0.11 J
K < Wfriction
Glider Does Not Reach the End of the Track
Problem #2
Wile E. Coyote, having just
passed Physics 207 at VCU,
splurges on a 500 kg ACME
rocket. He reads the rocket
specs to discover a relative
exhaust speed of 600 m/s and a
fuel consumption rate of 2
kg/s.
He launches horizontally after the roadrunner and flies for twenty
seconds before the road turns and the rocket does not work. He
collides with the 4000 kg ACME delivery truck (initially
stationary). Neglecting gravity and air resistance, what is the
relative velocity of the truck just after the totally inelastic
collision? Assume the super genius to have a mass of 25 kg.
Problem #2 (cont.)
Rocket Science is needed for this problem:
– Use the second rocket equation to find the
rocket speed at impact
mi
vf - vi = u ln
mf
500kg 25kg
vf = (600 m/s) ln
485kg
vf = 47.55 m/s
Problem #2 (cont.)
Now solve for vtruck using conservation of momentum:
– P i = Pf
– mrocket ivrocket i + mtruck i vtruck i = mrocket f vrocket f + mtruck f vtruck f
mrocketi vrocketi (485kg)( 47.55m / s )
– vf =
mrocket f mtruck f 485kg 4000kg
= 5.14 m/s
