In this tutorial, we consider the theoretical aspects of the impulse and penalty methods (the underpinnings of projection method being trivial). We discuss the nature of impulse and the manner in which objects guided by conservation of momentum interact.
From advanced 3D open worlds to the smallest 2D title, all games need physics to give them weight. In this video, Nicolas Borromeo and Vera Mommersteeg dive ...
Relate impulses to collisions; Apply the impulse-momentum theorem to solve problems
In the game of golf a stationary ball is hit by a club. One of the aims of the game is to land the ball on a patch of ground called the green. The graph shows how the force F exerted by the club on the ball varies with time t as the ball is hit. State why the area under the graph represents impulse. (1)
In a collision, objects experience an impulse; the impulse causes and is equal to the change in momentum. Consider a football halfback running down the football field and encountering a collision with a defensive back. The collision would change the halfback's speed and thus his momentum.
