Akhtar, Kiran and Rahul were riding in a motorcar that was moving with a high velocity on an expressway when an insect hit the windshield and got stuck on the windscreen. Akhtar and Kiran started pondering over the situation. Kiran suggested that the insect suffered a greater change in momentum as compared to the change in momentum of the motorcar (because the change in the velocity of the insect was much more than that of the motorcar). Akhtar said that since the motorcar was moving with a larger velocity, it exerted a larger force on the insect. And as a result the insect died. Rahul while putting an entirely new explanation said that both the motorcar and the insect experienced the same force and a change in their momentum. Comment on these suggestions.
Explain how, a karate player can break a pile of tiles with a single blow of his hand.
What is the change in momentum of a car weighing 1500 kg when its speed increases from 36 km/h to 72 km/h uniformly ?
A plastic ball and a clay ball of equal masses, travelling in the same direction with equal speeds, strike against a vertical wall. From which ball does the wall receive a greater amount of momentum ?
Fill in the following blanks with suitable words :
Momentum is a _____________ quantity. Its unit is _____________.
A 10 g bullet travelling at 200 m/s strikes and remains embedded in a 2 kg target which is originally at rest but free to move. At what speed does the target move off ?
A body of mass 2 kg is at rest. What should be the magnitude of force which will make the body move with a speed of 30 m/s at the end of 1 s ?
An unloaded truck weighing 2000 kg has a maximum acceleration of 0.5 m/s2. What is the maximum acceleration when it is carrying a load of 2000 kg ?
Suppose a ball of mass m is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed v, its speed decreases continuously till it becomes zero. Thereafter, the ball begins to fall downward and attains the speed v again before striking the ground. It implies that the magnitude of the initial and final momentums of the ball are the same. Yet, it is not an example of conservation of momentum. Explain why?
Two billiard balls A and B, each of mass 50 g and moving in opposite directions with speed of 5 ms–1 each, collide and rebound with the same speed. If the collision lasts for 10–3 s, which of the following statements are true?
- The impulse imparted to each ball is 0.25 kg ms–1 and the force on each ball is 250 N.
- The impulse imparted to each ball is 0.25 kg ms–1 and the force exerted on each ball is 25 × 10–5 N.
- The impulse imparted to each ball is 0.5 Ns.
- The impulse and the force on each ball are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
