When objects collide the totol inital momentum equals the total final momentum is what?
law of conservation of momentum
What are the particulars of the law of conservation of momentum?
In a closed system with no external forces acting upon it, the momentum of the system is constant.
Rocket works on the principle of conservation of?
linear momentum. A rocket works by expelling gases from one end at a very high velocity. The escaping gases have a very high speed and this with their mass translates to a very large momentum. Due to the principle of conservation of momentum the body of the rocket is pushed forward. If both the momentum of the gases as well as that of the rocket are added the sum is zero.
What is always true according to the law of conservation?
There is no one "law of conservation", there are several laws, such as conservation of energy, conservation of mass, conservation of electric charge, conservation of rotational momentum, etc.What is always true is that there is SOME quantity that doesn't change in the case of a closed system.
To every action force is there an equal and opposite reaction force that is the law of conservation of momentum?
No, that is Newton's Third Law of Motion. The Law of Conservation of Momentum is that within a contained set of objects, the total momentum never changes. Objects can only transfer energy to each other, they can never really "get rid" of it.
What is mean by consevation of momentum?
Conservation of momentum means the sum of Momentum is constant. Conservation of Momentum is the result of Conservation of Energy.
When does conservation of momentum occur?
Always. There are no expections to the conservation of momentum.
What does the conservaton suggest about the conservation of energy the conservation of matter and the conservation of momentum?
The Conservation of Matter and the Conservation of Momentum are the consequence of the Conservation of Energy.
What is a sentence using the law of conservation of momentum?
Conservation of momentum is an absolute symmetry of nature
Jet engine works on either on conservation of linear momentum or angular momentum?
it works on the basis of conservation of linear momentum
Year the law of conservation was discovered?
There are many laws of conservation. Some of the better-known ones are the law of conservation of energy, of momentum, and of rotational momentum.There are many laws of conservation.

What is it called when momentum can be transferred but the total momentum does not change?
conservation of momentum
How can before and after situations be compared for collisions using the law of conservation of momentum?
The momentum before and after is the same, due to the Law of Conservation of momentum. Thus if you calculate the momentum before, then you have the after momentum or vice-versa.
Is there conservation of momentum in hydraulic press?
Of course there is. Conservation of momentum applies everywhere - no exceptions have been found.
What is always conserved?
There are several conservation laws in nature: conservation of mass, conservation of energy, of momentum, of angular momentum, of electric charge, and others.
How is the conservation of momentum important to astronomy?
There are several conservation laws in physics, and many of them tell an astronomer what is, and what isn't, possible. This can help explain how certain things happen, or even predict what will happen. Among the laws of conservation that are relevant in astronomy are: conservation of mass; conservation of energy; conservation of momentum; conservation of rotational momentum; conservation of charge.
According to the law of conservation of in an isolated system the initial total momentum before a collision equals the final total momentum.?
momentum
