Follow this link to read a short section from an online physics book. http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/momentum/
You should read parts a, b, and c from Lesson 1: The Impulse-Momentum Change Theorem. Try answering the questions as you go.
Alternately you could read section 9.1 from the textbook (pp. 199-206)
Then do the two problems from the new assignment at the UT site. It's due at 10:00 Wednesday evening. (Jan 4)

Unit 5: Momentum, Energy and the Conservation Laws
Goals
1.Define and determine work, energy and power.
2.List a variety of types of energy and classify them as potential or kinetic.
3.Solve problems using equations for gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.
4.State and apply the law of conservation of energy.
5.Account for energy in its various forms through a series of transformations, including energy “lost” to heat.
6.Define impulse and momentum and describe how they’re related.
7.State the law of conservation of momentum and use it to solve problems in one and two dimensions.
8.Classify collisions as completely elastic, completely inelastic or somewhere in between.
Homework Assignments are due TOMORROW Jan 4, on Thursday, January 12th, and on Wednesday January 25.
A Lab report will be due on Friday Jan 20th.
we will have two days to review for the final at the beginning of February.
