Mechanical Analysis Exam 4 For better
grade A+
forces internal to a system do not change the momentum of or perform work on that
system

true

internal forces and relationship with total momentum

total momentum won't change, but momentum of each body or segment can change (if
one increases the other decreases)

elastic collisions

a collision where two objects bounce off each other without deformation or loss of heat

inelastic collisions

a collision in which two objects stick together after they collide

conservation of energy

in all collisions, total energy and momentum are always conserved

in elastic collisions kinetic energy is __________

conserved

in inelastic collisions kinetic energy is __________________

not conserved

in elastic collisions kinetic energy is conserved with no change in ___________

momentum

during perfect elastic collisions, what happens?

relative velocity remains the same
relative velocity is independent of the mass

Coefficient of Restitution (e)

measure of elasticity of a collision between two objects
values range from 0-1

, in a perfectly elastic collision what does e =?

1

in a perfectly inelastic collision e =?

0

the more elastic the coefficient is the greater the _________ will be

velocity

momentum is conserved in every _________

plane

Because energy is a scalar quantity it does not occur in ___________________

different planes

effective mass

the portion of a body's mass that is involved with a collision

what is effective mass essentially?

mass of an imaginary rigid body that replaces the body and it has the same speed as the
body part involved in the collision

when analyzing multi-segmented bodies you must be more explicit

true

for most striking athlete motions (baseball, golf, tennis etc.) there must be a large
impact by transferring a large amount of ____________ to the object being struck

momentum

tissue mechanics

mechanics of materials of human connective tissue such as bones, ligaments, cartilage,
tendons

load

an externally applied force

how an object responds to a load is determined by?

magnitude, location, direction, duration, frequency, variability, rate
