Is it possible for a bullet to have the same momentum as a truck?
Yes, it is possible for a bullet to have the same momentum as a truck if the bullet is traveling at a much higher velocity than the truck. Momentum is calculated as mass times velocity, so a small object like a bullet can have the same momentum as a larger object like a truck if its velocity is much greater.
Can a tiny bullet have more momentum than a huge truck?
No, momentum is determined by both mass and velocity. Even though a bullet can have a very high velocity, the mass of a huge truck is much greater, resulting in greater momentum.
How can the concept of momentum compare to a slow moving train and a high speed bullet?
Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. A high-speed bullet has more momentum than a slow moving train because the bullet has a smaller mass but much higher velocity. This means the bullet can have more impact and be harder to stop compared to the train, even though the train has more mass.
How do you apply the concept of momentum to compare the mass and velocity of a slow moving train and of a high-speed bullet?
The momentum of an object is the product of its mass and velocity. In the case of a slow moving train and a high-speed bullet, the bullet would have a higher momentum due to its higher velocity even if its mass is smaller. This is because momentum is more affected by velocity than by mass.
Does a tiny bullet have more momentum than a huge truck?
It depends on how fast each is going and how much each weighs. Momentum is calculated by multiplying the mass of an object by its speed. A tiny bullet moving very fast can have more momentum than a huge truck if the truck is moving very slowly (or not at all). (bullet mass) X (bullet speed) > (truck mass) X (truck speed)
A rubber or a steel bullet is effective to hit down a bottle of bear?
A rubber bullet because a stell one would have too much momentum and shatter the bottle.
Why do both you slowly docking ferry boat and a speedy rifle bullet have a large amount of momentum?
Both the ferry boat and the rifle bullet have large amounts of momentum because momentum is determined by the mass and velocity of an object. Even though the ferry boat is moving slowly but has a large mass, while the rifle bullet is moving quickly but has a much smaller mass, their momentum values end up being significant due to the combination of these two factors.
Why does a speeding bullet and a train have so much force?
Each of those items has large momentum and kinetic energy ... the bullet because of its high speed, and the train on account of its large mass.
Why does a speeding bullet and a moving train have so much force?
Each of those items has large momentum and kinetic energy ... the bullet because of its high speed, and the train on account of its large mass.
Why does a gunner feel a backward jerk when firing a gun?
This is conservation of momentum. You have the hot gases from the explosive charge along with the bullet moving out the barrel, away from the person. Momentum is mass times velocity. While the mass of the bullet and gases are small, the velocity is very high. So nothing was moving before the trigger was pulled, so net momentum is zero. After the trigger is pulled, the momentum is still net zero. Any momentum away from the gunner will have an equal momentum (the gun recoiling) toward him. Since the gun has much more mass than the bullet, the velocity is much less.
Why does a speeding bullet and a fact moving train have so much force?
A speeding bullet and a fast-moving train have a lot of force because of their momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, so the greater the speed and mass of an object, the more force it has. In the case of a bullet or a train, their high velocity and mass result in a significant amount of force when they collide with another object.
Is 243 winchster rim fire?
no- very much a center fire cartridge. It is the .308 cartridge necked down to a smaller (.243) bullet.
