Yes, mass will affect momentum in a collision or in anything else. Any object with mass and non-zero velocity will have momentum. Mass is directly proportional to momentum. Double the mass of an object moving with a given velocity and the momentum doubles.

∙ 14y agoThe momentum of a body is defined as:
momentum= Mass * velocity
So for any body and a given velocity, the momentum is directly and linearly proportional to its mass, that is if you increase the mass of a body then its momentum will increase by an amount of:
(M2-M1)* velocity
Where:
M2: Mass after increase
M1: Initial Mass

∙ 16y agoYes. Momentum is defined as velocity X mass.

∙ 9y agoThe mass has a great deal to do with an objects momentum. The greater the mass the faster an object moves.

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.
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.
How do the mass and velocity of a moving object affects its momentum?
As the velocity decreases, the momentum increases. Mass is the matter inside of something and momentum is how hard it is to stop something. Therefore momentum needs mass to function because without mass there would be no momentum. So think of the sentence above like this: velocity ( a measure of momentum) decreases, the momentum (including mass inside an object) goes up therefore making the mass increase while the velocity decreases.
Momentum is the product of mass and what of an object?
mass multiplied by velocity gives momentum.
When does a car have momentum?
Momentum = Mass x Velocity. (p=m*v)The mass of an object made of matter can not be zero.If the object (car) is moving, then the velocity will be non-zero, and the object will have non-zero momentum.So, if you are driving or rolling the car, it has momentum.If it is parked, then it will have 0 velocity (with respect to the earth), and thus will have 0 momentum.So, when the car is moving, it has net momentum. When it is parked it has zero momentum. I then just becomes a mater of semantics whether having zero momentum is equivalent to not having momentum, or if it is actually a valid value for momentum or state of momentum.
What effect does the mass of an object have on acceleration or deceleration of an object when an unbalanced force acts on it?
this is a tricky 1 because the mass itself does not affect it, but rather the friction of the plane it is moving on and the momentum (which does factor in mass) if no friction exists, then it is purely the momentum. momentum = mass x velocity
How does mass effect momentum?
Linear momentum is proportional to mass and velocity;p = mvThus, increase in mass will increase the linear momentumAngular momentum is similarly related:L = p.rL = mv.r
Is it true that momentum is not equal to the mass of an object divided by its velocity?
That is true because momentum is mass times velocity
The product of an object mass and velocity is called its What?
That's the object's linear momentum.
What is an object's mass multiplied by its velocity?
mass x velocity = momentum. (velocity = speed with a direction)
How does a variation in mass effect momentum?
Momentum is directly proportional to the mass.
The product of an object's mass and velocity?
The product of an object's mass and velocity is called it's momentum. It is mostly called it's linear momentum to differentiate from the term angular momentum.
What is the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity?
The product of mass and velocity of an object is its momentum.
What does momentum of an object mean?
Momentum is the product of mass x velocity.
The momentum of an object depends on what two factors?
For an object to have momentum, it must have mass and velocity.
The momentum of a falling leaf is and the momentum of a falling pincone is what?
momentum is equal to the mass of an object x velocity of an object
How can object with different masses have the same momentum?
Momentum is not just mass. Momentum is the product of mass x velocity.
