Momentum, specifically linear momentum, defined as:
p = mv
where p=momentum, m=mass and v=velocity
is a vector quantity that describes an objects motion in a given frame.
Inertia, or the Principle of Inertia, is an object's resistance to a change in velocity. It is pretty much summed up by Newton's First Law of motion, an object at rest/ in motion will continue at rest/ in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
Momentum and Inertia are related conceptually in the way that any object with mass has momentum, if its velocity is zero than its momentum is zero, and inertia is that objects resistance to a change in its velocity.

Does a stationary object has interia and momentum?
A stationary object has inertia, but not momentum. Momentum is the product of (mass) times (velocity). If the velocity is zero, then the momentum is zero.
How does friction affect interia?
Friction does not affect inertia, but it affects momentum. Momentum is the product of the mass of an object and its speed. Friction forces, if present, will always act to decrease the momentum of a moving object.
How are force and momentum related?
They are related for if you use a lot of momentum,the force you exert will be greater.
How is momentum related ito impulse?
An impulse is a change in momentum.
How does momentum and swimming relate?
momentum and swimming are related because you need momentum to keep you going
What is interia related to?
speed

What is a property of an object that is directly related to its mass and velocity?
The momentum.
How is momentum related to energy?
Momentum would be an example of kenetic energy.
How does impulse related to linear momentum?
Impulse is integral of linear momentum with respect to time, and in limits when that momentum was transferred.
How are mass and velocity related to momentum?
Momentum is the product of (mass) x (velocity) .
What is interia?
Interia is a Polish search engine and web portal that was created in 1999.
