Workshop 10A: Combining Momentum and Energy Conservation: The Ballistic Pendulum

As long as there are no external forces, the total momentum of objects involved in a collision is conserved. The kinetic energy of those objects, on the other hand, is NOT always conserved. Physicists use the terms elastic and inelastic to describe the behavior of kinetic energy in a collision.

• Discussion of Elastic vs. Inelastic collisions (10 min)

The ballistic pendulum is an example of a situation involving

1. first, an inelastic collision: use conservation of momentum
2. next, a swinging pendulum: use conservation of energy

• Ballistic Pendulum Part I: derive the muzzle velocity of the gun
• Ballistic Pendulum Part II: use projectile motion to check your estimate

Additional Material

combining energy and momentum Problems 1-5, (PE105, 45 min)

Some additional Energy Problems
