  1. Momentum

  2. Linear Momentum • A vector quantity defined as the product of an object’s mass and velocity • p = momentum p = mass X velocity

  3. Linear Momentum • What does the term momentum mean to you? • What are examples of momentum?

  4. Example 1 What velocity must a car with a mass of 1210 kg have in order to have a momentum of 5.6 X 104 kg·m/s to the east?

  5. Example 2 An ostrich with a mass of 146 kg is running to the right with a velocity of 17 m/s. Find the momentum of the ostrich.

  6. Example 3 A 21 kg child is riding a 5.9 kg bike with a velocity of 4.5 m/s to the north west. What is the total momentum of the child and the bike together?

  7. Example 4 A 21 kg child is riding a 5.9 kg bike with a velocity of 4.5 m/s to the north west. What is the momentum of the child?

  8. Example 5 A 21 kg child is riding a 5.9 kg bike with a velocity of 4.5 m/s to the north west. What is the momentum of the bike?
