AS Level Physics U4 Dynamics : Force-Time Graphs & Impulse Quiz

Question 1 of 7 Question 1 of 7

1

A 10-kg box, initially at rest, moves along a frictionless horizontal surface. A horizontal force to the right is applied to the box. The magnitude of the force changes as a function of time as shown.

Which of the following impulse calculations is correct?

I. The impulse for the period from 0 to 2 seconds is 4 Ns.
II. The impulse for the period from 2 to 5 seconds is 6 Ns.
III. The impulse for the period from 5 to 8 seconds is Ns.

Select one of the following:

  • III only.

  • I only.

  • II only.

  • I and II.

Explanation

Question 2 of 7 Question 2 of 7

1

A 10-kg box, initially at rest, moves along a frictionless horizontal surface. A horizontal force to the right is applied to the box. The magnitude of the force changes as a function of time is shown in the top graph.
A student draws the bottom graph for the momentum of this 10-kg box as a function of time during this 10-second interval.
Which statements describe what is correct about the second graph and/or describe changes that could be made to correct the graph? Select two answers.

Select one or more of the following:

  • From 0 – 2 seconds, the graph should be curved downward and from 5 – 8 seconds, the graph should be curved upward.

  • The graph is correct between 0 – 2 seconds and 5 – 8 seconds.

  • The graph is correct between 2 – 5 seconds and 8 – 10 seconds.

  • From 0 – 2 seconds, the graph should be curved upward and from 5 – 8 seconds, the graph should be curved downward.

Question 3 of 7 Question 3 of 7

1

A 10-kg box, initially at rest, moves along a frictionless horizontal surface. A horizontal force to the right is applied to the box. The magnitude of the force changes as a function of time as shown.

Rank the impulse (greatest to least) applied to the box by this force during each 2-second interval indicated below:
a. 0 to 2 s

b. 2 to 4 s

c. 4 to 6 s

d. 6 to 8 s

e. 8 to 10 s

Select one of the following:

  • b > c > a > d > e

  • b > c > d > a > e

  • b > a > c > d > e

  • Each slope is straight so the impulse applied to the box during each of the intervals is zero.

What is the impulse applied to the 30 kg sphere?

Select one of the following:

  • 500 kg m/s

  • 250 kg m/s

  • 300 kg m/s

  • 100 kg m/s

Question 7 of 7 Question 7 of 7

1

For the collision , how do the magnitudes of change in momentum and change in velocity compare for the two objects?

Select one of the following:

  • The two objects have the same magnitude of momentum change, and the 30 kg object has greater magnitude of velocity change.

  • The two objects have the same magnitude of momentum change, and the 6 kg object has greater magnitude of velocity change.

  • The two objects have the same magnitude of momentum change, and the same magnitude of velocity change.

  • The 6 kg object has a greater magnitude of momentum change and a greater magnitude of velocity change.
