What is the change in momentum of a car weighing 1500 kg when its speed increases from 36 km/h to 72 km/h uniformly ?
उत्तर
We know that :
Momentum = mass × velocity
= m × v
Here, mass, m = 1500 kg
And, velocity, v = 36 km/h
= `36 xx 1000/3600`
= `36 xx 1000/3600`
= `36 xx 10/36`
= 10 m/s
Putting these values in the above formula, we get:
Initial Momentum = 1500 × 10 kg.m/s = 15000 kg.m/s
Also, we know that:
Momentum = mass × velocity
= m × v
Here, mass, m = 1500 kg
And, velocity, v = 72 km/h
= `72 xx 1000/3600`
= `72 xx 1000/3600`
= `72 xx 10/36`
= 20 m/s
Putting these values in the above formula, we get:
Final Momentum = 1500 × 20 kg.m/s = 30000 kg.m/s.
The change in momentum of a car weighing 1500 kg when its speed increases from 36 km/h to 72 km/h = 30000 kg.m/s − 15000 kg.m/s = 15000 kg.m/s.

Suppose a ball of mass m is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed v, its speed decreases continuously till it becomes zero. Thereafter, the ball begins to fall downward and attains the speed v again before striking the ground. It implies that the magnitude of the initial and final momentums of the ball are the same. Yet, it is not an example of conservation of momentum. Explain why?
