Define momentum. State its S.I. unit. An object of mass 50 kg. is accelerated uniformly from a velocity of 4ms⁻¹ to 8ms⁻¹ in 8s. Calculate the initial and final momentum of the object. Also find the magnitude of the force exerted on the object.
State the law of conservation of momentum. Why is a person hit harder when he falls on a hard floor than when he falls on sand from the same height? A bullet of mass 20g is fired horizontally with a velocity 100ms⁻¹ from a pistol of mass 1.5 kg. Calculate the recoil velocity of the pistol.
Meenu observed that as a stone of mass 1kg falls freely from a height 1m, its potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. Therefore, its potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases. As the stone touches the ground, all its potential energy is converted to the kinetic energy.
Renu observed that as a stone of mass 1kg falls freely from a height 1m, its potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. Therefore, its potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases. As the stone touches the ground, all its potential energy is converted to the kinetic energy.
Differentiate between kinetic energy and potential energy with relevant formulas and examples.
Define kinetic energy and provide its formula.
