If a compact car and an SUV were both moving at 50 mph which would have the greater momentum?

Since momentum is mass x velocity, the vehicle with the greater mass would have more momentum in this case.


What is the momentum of a forklift at 10 mph?

You need to know the mass. The equation for momentum (p) is p = mv, where m is the mass in kg and v is the velocity in m/s.


What is the average speed of man running?

The original answer is misleading 15MPH is world class. Sprinting up to 100 yards - record is ~23 MPH - average ~14 Running up to a mile /1600 meters record is ~16MPH - average ~10MPH Marathon distance record ~26 Mile/42 Km is ~13MPH/21KmPH reasonable 9MPH 14KmPH (NY marathon qualification time) For figuring out how fast you can get between two points these are probably better values as they assume you can actually not spend too much time recovering. The Average walking speed is 3-4 MPH 5-6 KmPH or about 100 yards/meters per minute Running speed sustained is about twice that 8 MPH, 12 KmPH or 200 yards/meters per minute.


Crash severity increases with the speed of the vehicle at impact?

Yes, all things being equal, crash severity does increase proportional to the speed of each vehicle at impact, and is a vector sum. So, there is a big difference between crash severity at impact from being "rear-ended" (when one vehicle is traveling the same direction as another, and impacts the front of their vehicle with the rear of another) and a "head-on" impact (two cars traveling into one another, impacting both front bumpers). In the rear-end impact, you take the momentum (mass times velocity) of the rear, impacting vehicle "A" and subtract the momentum of the front-most impacted vehicle "B", and that gives you the resultant impact force (the difference in momentum being transferred). weak impact scenario example: vehicle A is traveling 60 mph, and vehicle B is the same mass and is traveling 50 mph. The difference in momentum would be the mass times 10 mph...not much. severe impact scenario: vehicle A is traveling 70 mph, and vehicle B is at rest (0 mph)...large impact. In the head-on impact, you have the most severe crash scenario. In this case, you ADD the momentum of vehicle A with the momentum of vehicle B, and you get the resultant force of impact. Even if both vehicles are traveling 30 mph, with the same mass, and have a heaad-on collision, the is close to the same as one vehicle traveling 10 mph and hitting the other vehicle going 70 mph...severe impact.


Can you give an example of relative motion?

A train you are on is passing a station at 50 mph, you are running (in the same direction) along the train at 5 mph (relative to the train). But are moving at (50 + 5) 55 mph relative to the station.

What has more momentum an ant running or a ship at rest?

a ant running the equation for momentum is p=mv so plug in the numbers an ant weighing . 1 pounds moving at 1mph is p=.1*1 is .1pound/mph a ship at rest has no momentum because velocity = 0

If a conveyor belt is moving at 100 mph, and a person is on the conveyor belt and running in the same direction at what would be 20 mph off the belt, how fast is the person going I would appreciate it if a formula and explanation is provided?

The person on the conveyor belt is moving at 120 mph relative to the ground. This is because the person is running at 20 mph relative to the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt is moving at 100 mph relative to the ground. Therefore, the person's total speed is the speed of the conveyor belt (100 mph) plus the speed of the person relative to the conveyor belt (20 mph), giving a total speed of 120 mph.

Does a train going 30 mph have more momentum than a car going 35 mph?

Yes. momentum is figured out by the formula p =mv momentum = mass (weight) x velocity The train would have a massive amount of mass and as you can see in the formula the car (mass) would not be anywhere close to the momentum of the train.


How can a heavy moving van have the same momentum as a small motorcycle?

Momentum = Mass x Velocity. They could have the same momentum if the motorcycle is going fast and the van is going slow. If the van weighs ten times as much as the motorcycle, and is driving 5 mph it would have the same momentum as the motorcycle driving 50 mph.
