Q.

Two pucks are initially moving along a frictionless surface as shown in the diagram. The pucks have mass m1 < m2 and begin with equal magnitude of momentum. A constant force F is applied to each puck directly to the right for the same amount of non-zero time. After the pushes are complete, what is the relationship for the size of the momenta of pucks (p1 and p2 ) ?

Detailed Solution

Fext=dPdtFt = P

now final

 Pf = Pi+P Pf  = Pi2+P2+2PiPcos θ

When θ is the angle between P and Pi

Since this angle is less for puck 2 

Pf for 2 is greater

Hence p1<p2
