Newton's Third Law of Motion

Third Law - to every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction What will happen if one of the passengers jumps out of the boat? Newton”s 3 rd Law. Watch it!

Action - Reaction When a pistol fires, the bullet exits with force, the opposite reaction is to move toward the person firing the gun. The “KICK” of a firearm is called RECOIL

Video on Propulsion What are the forces acting on the jet?

You can create something similar to a jet using a straw and a balloon. A. Attach balloon to the straw with masking tape B. Attach a second straw vertical to the first one using a pin. C. Blow up the balloon and then release it. 1. 2. 3. 4. What happens to the straw as the air goes out of the balloon? ____ If you bend the straw to the right, the straw spins which direction? ______ If you bend the straw to the left, the straw spins which direction? _______ What can you do to SLOW the spin of the straw? _________

Balloon Car You can build a balloon car with index cards, straws and other assorted objects. Which of the following would make it go faster? (check) ___ Bigger wheels ___ Bigger balloon ___ Bigger straw ___ Bigger body ___ Raise balloon higher When air is released from the balloon, which direction does the car travel?

MOMENTUM = mass x velocity p = mv Momentum describes how much force is necessary to change its motion Which has more momentum: soccer ball traveling at 5 m/s or a train traveling at 5 m/s

p = mv 1. What is the momentum of a car with a mass of 1000 kg traveling at the speed of 2 m/s? 2. A baseball has a momentum of 6 kg*m/s. If the mass of the baseball is 3 kg, what is the baseball's velocity? 3. What is the mass of a person walking at a speed of 2 m/s if the person's momentum is 50 kg*m/s

Law of Conservation of Momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system before collision is always equal to total momentum after collision *If you hit a pool ball into another pool ball, momentum is transferred and *conserved*. The cue ball stops but the other ball moves.

Where would you need to hit the cue ball? Objects in motion tend to _____ in motion. Force equals ______ x acceleration

COLLISIONS Elastic vs inelastic Elastic - objects bounce off each other Inelastic - objects stick together Conservation of Momentum still applies. Experiments with the airtrack.
