Day #1 Question 1 At an amusement park, bumper car X moves at a speed of 2.5 m/s toward car Y, which is at rest, as shown in the diagram below: Car X collides with car Y. How does the momentum of each car change after the collision? A. Car X’s momentum increases, and car Y’s momentum decreases. B. Car X’s momentum decreases, and car Y’s momentum increases. C. Car X’s momentum is unchanged, and car Y’s momentum increases. D. Car X’s momentum is unchanged, and car Y’s momentum decreases.
Day #1 Question 2 Two students are standing next to each other. One of the students throws a tennis ball forward toward a line 2.0 m away. At the same time, the second student throws a bowling ball in the same direction. Both balls take the same time to travel the 2.0 m. Only the second student feels a noticeable backward push when she throws her ball. Which of the following statements explains why only the second student feels a noticeable backward push? A. The bowling ball exerts a much larger reaction force. B. The bowling ball undergoes a much larger acceleration. C. The bowling ball requires more force to overcome gravity. D. The bowling ball converts more inertia into kinetic energy.
