Inertia is directly proportional to mass. Unless you mean rotational inertia, in which case it depends on the shape, but for two objects of the same shape (and mass distribution), the more massive always has higher inertia.

Momentum = mass x velocity, so if they are both moving at the same speed, the 10 kg ball will have more momentum.

Inertia = mass x velocity

If they are travelling at the same velocity, then the Baseball as more inertia.

Compute the momentum of a 50 kg bike and a 30 kg rider going 10 m s?

Momentum = (mass) times (velocity) = (50 + 30) (10) = 800 kilogram-meters per second.


A 250 gram ball travels at a velocity of 40 ms. It momentum is?

Momentum = (mass) times (velocity) = 0.25 x 40 = 10 kg-m/sec


What is the weight of a 10 kilogram ball using 9.8 meters per second squared?

Weight = m g = 10 x 9.8 = 980 newtons.


Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 200 kg. Spaceship 1 has a speed of 0 ms and Spaceship 2 has a speed of 10 ms. What is the magnitude of their combined momentum?

Momentum = mass x speedSince Spaceship-#1 is not moving, it has no momentum. Their combined momentumis that of Spaceship-#2 alone.Momentum = mass x speed = 200 x 10 = 2,000 kilogram-meters per second.


Can objects with different masses have the same momentum?

Yes. Momentum is rigidly defined as the product of mass and velocity. Velocity describes both a speed and a direction. So let's take two metal balls. One weighs 10 kilograms (kg) and the other weighs 20kg. We roll the 10kg ball along a flat and level floor at 2 meters per second (m/s) and the 20 kg ball at 1 m/s. 10*2 = 20*1 so they have the same momentum. If you have a friend roll the balls for you to catch some distance away, making sure after a few tests to roll the lighter ball at twice the speed of the heavier ball, you will find that it "feels" as if both balls hit your hand with about the same force. Your hand is stopping each ball. That is a force which is defined as the rate of change in momentum. Stopping each ball will cause your muscles to exert about the same strength to stop each ball, even though one is moving at double the speed of the other. You will then feel that two objects can indeed travel at different speeds and yet have the same momentum. JGS

Which has more momentum a golf ball or a bowling ball?

A bowling ball has more momentum. You cannot throw it as fast, but a tenpin ball weighs 16 pounds and a baseball only 1/3 pound. Momentum is mass times velocity and if you throw the bowling ball at 10 mph but the baseball at 90 mph the bowling ball still has much more momentum.


Does a 1-kg ball have less momentum or same momentum as a 10-kg ball?

Momentum is mass x velocity, so it would also depend on each ball's velocity.


What is the momentum of a 2 kilogram toy truck that moves at 10 meters per second?

liner momentum = p = mV = 2 kg * 10 m/s = 20 kg m/s


Compute the momentum of a 50 kg bike and a 30 kg rider going 10 m s?

Momentum = (mass) times (velocity) = (50 + 30) (10) = 800 kilogram-meters per second.


Which has a greater momentum 10 kg body moving at 10 ms or a 20 kg body moving at 5 ms?

Momentum = M V = (10) x (5) = 50 kilogram-meters per second


What is the speed of a 2 kg ball that has a momentum of 10 kg per meter per second?

Momentum = M V = 10V = 10/M = 10/2= 5 meters per second


How much more momentum will a 10 kg ball have over a 1 kg ball?

Ten times more, assuming it has the same speed. To have actual numbers, you have to multiply mass (kilograms) times velocity (meters/second) for both balls.


A 250 gram ball travels at a velocity of 40 ms. It momentum is?

Momentum = (mass) times (velocity) = 0.25 x 40 = 10 kg-m/sec


Where does kinetic energy go after it is used?

If you're suggesting something like an auto accident, the energy of the collision is used to deform materials in the structural elements of the vehicle(s). It also heats them. The primary design features of cars includes a lot of thought to where the energy of a collision can go. Bumpers collapse, body panels and their strengthening members fold and become compressed, and a top or roof can collapse down. All this sinks ("sucks up") energy. And if it all works in an optimal way, you can climb out and walk away.


Does 0.01 kilogram weigh more than 10 grams?

Same thing 1 kilogram = 1000 grams 1 gram = 0.001 kilogram


What weighs more 0.001 kilogram or 10 grams?

10 grams more. 0.001 kg = 1 g


What is 3 tenths of a kilogram more than 325g?

Let's see. 3/10 * 1000 grams ( same as 1 kilogram ) = 3000/10 = 300 grams ---------------------- So, 325 grams is larger than 3/10 of a kilogram.
