Changing momentum
These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:
- Calculate momentum using p = m x v.
- Describe what happens to the motion of objects colliding head on.
- Determine changes in momentum, Δp.
- Explain and use the relationship between force, change in momentum and time the force is acting.
- Apply an understanding of F=Δp/Δt to explain how forces and momentum can be controlled.
The resources include details of common misconceptions and a summary of the research upon which the resources are based.
Download the zip file for all the questions and activities.
