What else can I help you with?
Does an object have to be heavy in order to have momentum?
No. Even a single electron has momentum.
What stops first a heavy object or a light one?
A light object has less momentum than a heavy object. A light object would stop first.
Does a stationary object have momentum?
No, a stationary object does not have momentum because momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity. If an object is not moving (velocity is zero), then its momentum will also be zero.
When does an object not have momentum?
An object does not have momentum when it is stationary or not in motion. Momentum is a product of an object's mass and velocity, so if either of these values is zero, the object's momentum will also be zero.
Which has a greater momentum a heavy truck at rest or a moving skeatboard?
A moving skateboard has greater momentum than a heavy truck at rest. Momentum is determined by both the mass and velocity of an object, so even though the truck may have more mass, the skateboard's velocity contributes more to its momentum.
Does a resting object have momentum?
No, a resting object does not have momentum because momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Since a resting object has zero velocity, its momentum is also zero.
How to find the change in momentum of an object?
To find the change in momentum of an object, you can subtract the initial momentum from the final momentum. Momentum is calculated by multiplying the mass of the object by its velocity. So, the change in momentum is the final momentum minus the initial momentum.
The product of an object mass and velocity is called its What?
That's the object's linear momentum.
Why does a heavy object travel further than a light object with same force?
A heavy object travels further than a light object when acted upon by the same force because it has more inertia and requires more force to stop it. This means the heavy object will maintain its momentum and cover a longer distance before coming to a stop, compared to the lighter object.
Will an object with mass have momentum?
Yes, an object with mass will have momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity that describes the motion of an object based on its mass and velocity. The momentum of an object is the product of its mass and velocity.
When ever an object is standing still the momentum is?
When an object is still it has no momentum. That is, the momentum is zero.
How can the linear momentum of an object be calculated?
The linear momentum of an object can be calculated by multiplying the mass of the object by its velocity. The formula for linear momentum is: momentum = mass x velocity.
