The quiz will be particularly on Fishbane Chapters 6,7 but anything we have done in the course up to this week may come up. There will be one long problem in the group quiz, two long problems and 5 multiple choice problems in the individual One question will be very similar to one of the questions you have done for homework. You can bring into the quiz one side of normal sized paper with hand-written notes and formulae.

If there are no external forces momentum is conserved This is a component (vector) equation. We can apply it to any direction in which there is no external force applied. We often have momentum conservation even when kinetic + potential energy is not conserved. If there are no external forces the center of mass motion does not change.

Inelastic collision in 1-D: Example 1 1A block of mass M is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A bullet of mass m is fired at the block with a muzzle velocity (speed) v. The bullet lodges in the block, and the block ends up with a speed V. What is the initial speed of the bullet v, in terms of m, M, and V :? What is the initial energy of the system? What is the final energy of the system? Is kinetic energy conserved? x v V before after
Physics 1301: Lecture 27, Pg 10
A collision is said to be inelastic when kinetic energy is not conserved before and after the collision, but momentum is conserved. Kbefore Kafter Car crashes, collisions where objects stick together, etc.
Example 1...
Consider the bullet & block as a system. After the bullet is fired, there are no external forces acting on the system in the x-direction. Momentum is conserved in the x direction! Px, i = Px, f mv = (M+m)V
M + m v = V m
M + m v = V m

Kinetic energy is NOT conserved! (the bullet did work) We COULD NOT use conservation of energy but we COULD use conservation of momentum to solve the problem

Example 2...
Use conservation of momentum to find v after the collision. Before the collision: After the collision:
Pf = ( M + m )v
Pi = Pf
v=0 M+m
Pi = M V + m ( 0 )
Conservation of momentum:
M V = ( M + m )v
v=
M V (M + m)

v=?
