1-6 BREAKING NEWS!!!! Today on WGAL 8 we are here at Manheim Township High Schoool in Mr.Mannings seventh period class. Mr. Manning being a genius at phyics of course is teaching his class about impulse today. To begin class he opened up with a Daily Question, which a student commented on, " Yea mr.Manning always gives us a DQ and sometimes they're greaded but not this one thankfully". We asked shanna Mack a student in the class what the Dialy Question is. SHe replied,,"Well the first part to todays daily question is, Scientists classify head on collisions as "bouncing and "non-bouncing. Suppose a one thousand five hundren kilogram truck collides, while initially traveling at one hundred meters per second, with another car head on. After the collision, the truck "bounces" and continues to move at negative fifty meters per second (negative because of the direction). What is the change in momentum of this truck? This is how the students and Mr.Mannig solved part one of the daily question. The solved problem is at the top named file:part1.bmp. Now mr.Manning and his students have solved the part one of the daily question they move on to part two. We asked Aleko what the second part to the daily question is he responded, "The second part of the daily question is, Now suppose that the onethousand five hundred kilogram truck collides, moving at the same inital speed, but finally comes to rest(a non bouncing accident), what is the change in the momentum of this accident?" We then watched the students quickly race to solve the second part to the dialy question. Then one of our camera men thought that he could solve the problem an dasked the class as well as Mr. Manning if he could try to solve the problem. They all replied, "Haha sure go for it." then this is what our camera man came up with.Which the answer is at the top titled part two. Surprisingly our camera man paid attention in high school when he took physics because Mr.Mannig told him that he did an awesome job and that the answer was correct. After thisthere was a last part to part two that read, Which collision has the least change in momentum? I then thought that i could easily answer the question and asked if i could give it a shot. I answered this question saying. "momentum two has the least change in momentum". Mr. Mannig replied saying, "Wow i am impressed to see how great our local news channel is at physics." After the Daily question Mr. Manning then introduced impulse. Which he siad that, " impulse causes an object to change its' speed and the change in speed causees a change in momentum and that is how impule and momentum are related". After The explanation of impulse Mr.Manning did a deminstration of how impules and momentum are related. He used a motion detector to record the motion of a cart hitting a board. On the scree nbehind Mr. Manning was a VT and An Ft gragh that showed how they were related.After all this the class moved on to finish going over pagefive and six titled Impulse and Momentume Questions. Then Mr. Mannig handed out a homework sheet which was page seven and eight titiled More Questions and problems on Momentum and Impulses. Well it seems as though the class is packing up to prepare to leave for the end of the day, so this is Janel Stealson with news 8 see you at fivewith the five o'clock news. Amanda Rivera period 7
