No, it cannot. In the case of an object moving in the free space (no forces acting on the object) the energy consists of only the kinetic energy which is proportional to squared momentum. Thus, if the object has a momentum it has an energy to. Basically an object possesses some energy in any kind of time, and it might happen that the energy is zero. It doesn't mean that it has no energy. It means that the object has energy equals zero (which is not the same).

∙ 12y agoAn object can not have momentum with out speed because speed is what gives an oject it's momentum. Here is the equasion for momentum; momentum (P) = Mass (M) x Speed (V). So P=MV. This means without speed you have no momentum. Hope I helped, 2000AD

∙ 15y agoyes, it posseses energy just hasn't been set in motion

What is momentum the measure of?
If an object is at rest it has inertia, which has to be overcome to make it move. When an object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed it has momentum, which must be overcome to slow or stop the object
A measurement of the motion of something. This is equal to the product of the moving objects's mass times it's velocity?
== == Momentum is the product of the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity (or speed). Momentum is conserved so if a moving object hits a staionary object the total momentum of the two objects after the collision is the same as the momentum of the original moving object.
What is the relationship between momentum and mass?
The more the mass, the more momentum you will need for an object to speed up more, or accelerate.
Can a moving object have impulse in itself?
yes moving objects have impulse
Which has a greater momentum a small pick up truck traveling at 55km an hour or a full-sized bus traveling at the same speed?
Momentum is mass times velocity, if the velocity of the two are the same, the object with the greater mass will have proportionally greater momentum.
How does increasing the speed of an object change its momentums?
Increasing the speed of an object will increase its momentum as well (momentum=mass*velocity).
How is speed related to momentum?
Very, very basically, momentum is a combination of speed and mass of the object.
Does an object moving at a constant speed have momentum?
Yes. An object moving at all in any direction at any speed has momentum due to inertia.
What impacts the amount of momentum an object has?
The mass of the object and its speed.
Can you have kinetic energy without momentum?
We don't think you can. Here's our reasoning: -- Kinetic energy of an object is [(1/2)(mass)(speed)2]. If kinetic energy is not zero, then mass can't be zero, and speed can't be zero either. -- Momentum of the object is [(mass)(speed)]. If mass isn't zero and speed isn't zero, then momentum isn't zero.
When the angular speed of an object increase its angular momentum may or may not increase?
if the angular speed of an object increase its angular momentum will also increase
Is the momentum of an object moving in a circular path at a constant speed is constant?
determine if the momentum of an object moving in a circular path at constant speed is constant.
What is an object's mass multiplied by its velocity?
mass x velocity = momentum. (velocity = speed with a direction)
What is the equasion used to determine the momentum of an object?
Momentum = (mass) multiplied by (speed)
What is needed for an object to have large momentum?
That would depend on what you consider "large".The size of an object's momentum = (its mass) x (its speed).So, more mass and more speed result in more momentum.
What factors are involved in the momentum of moving object?
The object's mass and speed.
Determine if the momentum of an object moving in a circular path at constant speed is constant.?
determine if the momentum of an object moving in a circular path at constant speed is constant.
