MOMENTUM AND IMPULSE
I. Objectives
• To describe the momentum and impulse of an object

• To investigate factors that affect the momentum and impulse; and
• To solve problems applying the concept of momentum and impulse
Activity 1. COMPARING GREATER MOMENTUM
Directions: From the different pairs of objects, which has a greater momentum? Put the symbol > or <
on the blank provided as to which of the objects possess greater momentum.
A bicycle with a 30-kg rider < A tricycle with a 30-kg rider

A brick dropped from a building > A paper dropped from a building
A basketball rolling with a velocity of 5 m/s < A bowling ball rolling with a velocity of 5 m/s
A vehicle at rest < A vehicle in motion
A cargo truck traveling at a velocity of 40 km/h > A small truck traveling at a velocity of 40 km/h
A 60 – kg man running > 60 – kg lady walking
A light toy car with a velocity of 3 m/s < A heavy toy car with a velocity of 3 m/s
A truck traveling at 20 km/h < A truck traveling at 40 km/h
Momentum of the egg when it dropped from the < Momentum of the egg when it dropped from the
second floor of the building sixth floor of the building
Christopher throws a ball with a velocity of 5 m/s > Christopher throws a ball with a velocity of 2 m/s
GUIDE QUESTIONS:
Directions: In your own words, answer the following questions. (3 points each).
1. What are the factor/s affecting the momentum of an object?
The quantity of motion that an item has is defined as momentum in physics. Mass and velocity
are the two factors that influence an object's momentum. Momentum is also proportional to
the mass and speed of an object (velocity).
2. What is the relationship between momentum and impulse?
The change in momentum of the item is equal to the object's impulse. Objects in a collision
experience an impulse, which produces and equals the change in momentum. However, The
force of impact is related to the body's momentum and inversely proportional to the contact
time.
3. How can you apply the learning you have learned during this activity?
This lesson have a variety of real-world applications. One of the examples is the usage of air
bags in autos. Air bags are employed in automobiles because they can reduce the force applied
to an object in the event of a collision. Air bags achieve this by increasing the time required to
stop the driver and passenger's momentum. Newton's first law states that when an automobile
collides, the driver and passenger tend to keep driving. Their momentum propels them towards
a windshield, which requires a large force applied quickly to stop their momentum. If the driver
and passenger collide with an air bag instead of the windshield, the impact's duration is
lengthened. The time length may be enhanced by a factor of 100 when impacting an object with
some give, such as an air bag. Increase the time by a factor of 100 and the force will drop by a
factor of 100. That's how physics works.
Activity 2. YOU CAN DO MORE!
Directions: Applying the equation learned, answer the following problems using the GRESA method, and
show your solutions. (5 points each).
1. A tire whose mass is 4.0 kg is rolling at a rate of 2.5 m/s. What is its momentum?
Given: m = 4.0 kg
v = 2.5 m/s
Required: momentum (p)

what is its momentum?
Equation: p = mv or p = m x v
Solution: p = (4.0 kg) x (2.5 m/s)
Answer: p = 10 kg . m/s
The tire’s momentum is 10 kg . m/s.
2. A tennis player throws the tennis ball with a mass of 0.8 kg and a momentum of 16 kg-m/s.
What is its velocity?
Given: p = 16 kg . m/s
M = 0.8 kg
Required: velocity (v)

what is its velocity?
𝑝
Equation: 𝑣 =
𝑚
16 𝑘𝑔 . 𝑚/𝑠
Solution: 𝑣 =
0.8 𝑘𝑔
Answer: v = 20 m/s
The tennis ball’s velocity is 20 m/s.

3. What is the impulse of a cart that the boy pushes with a force of 2kg-m/s within 10 seconds?
Given: F = 2 N
t = 10 s
Required: impulse (I) or p

what is the impulse of a cart?
Equation: I = Ft or I = F x t
Solution: I = (2 N) x (10 s)
Answer: I = 20 N.s
The impulse of a cart is 20 N.s
