It is generally a good idea to gain an understanding of the size of units. Consider each object and calculate the magnitude of their momentum in SI units. A ladybug with mass 32.90 milligrams flies by your head at 4.53 km/h. magnitude of the momentum: A 30.70 km boy walks at 4.27 km/h. magnitude of the momentum: A car with mass 997 kg is moving at a speed of 40.1 km/h. magnitude of the momentum: Based on the previous results, which scenario likely describes an object possessing 1 kg-m/s? a mosquito flying through a swamp a cat walking down a sidewalk a beetle walking across a jungle floor a tiger running after prey O an elephant running across a field kg-m/s kg-m/s kg-m/s

In a frame at rest with respect to the billiard table, a billiard ball of mass m moving with speed v strikes another billiard ball of mass m at rest. The first ball comes to rest after the collision while the second ball takes off with speed v in the original direction of the motion of the first ball. This shows that momentum is conserved in this frame. (a) Now, describe the same collision from the perspective of a frame that is moving with speed v in the direction of the motion of the first ball. (b) Is the momentum conserved in this frame?
An observer in a rocket moves toward a mirror at speed v relative to the reference frame labeled by S in Figure P1.30. The mirror is stationary with respect to S. A light pulse emitted by the rocket travels toward the mirror and is reflected back to the rocket. The front of the rocket is a distance d from the mirror (as measured by observers in S) at the moment the light pulse leaves the rocket. What is the total travel time of the pulse as measured by observers in (a) the S frame and (b) the front of the rocket? Figure P1.30
