Momentum (p) is a quantity with unit kgms−1 . It is thought to be related to the mass (m) and velocity (v) of a particle. Use dimensional analysis to find the relationship among p, m and v.
Your video analysis of the motion of a marble gives it position in
frame 23 as
(x23 , Y23) = (0.134 m, 0.120 m)
and its position in frame 24 as
(24 , Y24) = (0.102 m, 0.112 m).
You estimate that you can measure the r and y positions with
uncertainty ±0.003 m. The frame rate of the video is 30
frames/s, which means the time interval between frames is
At = 0.033333 s. The uncertainty of the frame rate of a video
camera is VERY small. For the sake of this problem, use
8(At) = 1 x 10 s. The mass of the marble is
(2.031 0.001) x 10 2 kg.
