Momentum — practice question

(a)[1]

Underline the pair of quantities that must be multiplied together to calculate impulse. force linked with mass force linked with velocity mass linked with time time linked with velocity weight linked with velocity force linked with time

(b(i))[6]

Calculate 1. the momentum of block A before the collision, 2. the velocity v, 3. the impulse experienced by block B during the collision.

(b(ii))[1]

Suggest why the combined kinetic energy of blocks A and B after the collision is smaller than the kinetic energy of block A before the collision.
