If the mass of a moving object is doubled with no change in velocity what would be the change in momentum?

It doubles. Momentum (p) is the product of velocity (v) and mass (m). For a given mass, if you double the velocity, you'll double the momentum. Velocity and momentum are said to be directly proportional. p = m x v

∙ 14y agoThe moment of an object can be found with the equation:
P = mv
where P is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity.
If you were to double the velocity without changing the mass, the momentum, P, would also be doubled.

∙ 13y agoAccording to Newtonian physics, if the velocity of an object is doubled, the momentum will increase by a factor of 2.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIf the mass doubles and the velocity is constant, then the momentum doubles.
p = m * v where p is the momentum, m is the mass, and v is the velocity.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoIf the mass is doubled and the velocity is also doubled,
then the momentum is four times its original value.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoMomentum also increases by the factor of 2 .
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoMomentum is mass times velocity. The answer, from that fact, should be trivially easy to determine.
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoMomentum is proportional to both velocity and mass; therefore in this case, momentum would increase by a factor of 2 x 2 = 4.

∙ 15y agoThe Momentum is also doubled.

When mass and speed of a moving body are doubled what happens to its kinetic energy?
Momentum = (mass x velocity) = M V If velocity is doubled, then new momentum = (M x 2V) = 2 x (M V) = double the original momentum. ========================= Kinetic energy = 1/2 M V2 If 'V' is doubled, then new KE = (1/2 M) (2V)2 = (1/2 M) (4V2) = 4 (1/2 M V2) = 4 times original KE.
Can a body moving with uniform speed have variable velocity?
Yes it can.When a body moves in a circular path keeping its speed uniform then it will have variable vilocity as vilocity is the speed in a particular direction and while moving in a circular path its direction keeps changing and so does vilocity
What describes both speed and direction?
Velocity describes both the speed and direction an object is moving.
When can an object a constant speed but not a constant velocity?
If the velocity is constant there is no acceleration. Speed is not velocity, velocity has speed and direction. I A car going around a circular track at 60 mph keeps the same speed but changes direction and thus accelerates at a constant speed. Velocity is speed in a certain direction. So change the speed but keep direction the same and you change the velocity. or Change the direction while keeping the speed the same and you change the velocity. If the speed is constant, any change of direction is a change in velocity. Driving around in a circle is a case of constantly changing direction.
What is the wavelength of a 300 gram object moving at a velocity of about 100 mph?
The mass and velocity of an object do not determine its wavelength: it could be travelling in a straight line!
If an object is moving at a constant velocity and you want to change it's momentum you would change it's?
The answer is velocity.
If the velocity of a moving body is doubled what does this do to kinetic energy and the momentun of the body?
The kinetic energy would be quadrupled, and the momentum would be doubled.
When the mass of a moving object is doubled and its speed remains the same its momentum?
If the mass is doubled,speed should be halved to conserve momentum.
Is a property of moving objects that depends on mass and velocity?
Momentum depends on mass and velocity.
What property that a moving object has due to its mass and velocity?
The property you are looking for is the objects momentum. Momentum = Mass * Velocity.
Why does momentum have a direction?
Because momentum is mass X velocity. Velocity has direction, otherwise it is speed.
Which determines the momentum a moving body?
The product of mass and velocity determines the momentum of a moving body.
What depend on objects mass and velocity?
a moving objects momentum
What is a property of a moving object resulting from its mass and velocity is?
The property you are looking for is the objects momentum. Momentum = Mass * Velocity.
Which has a greater momentum a heavy truck at rest or a moving skeatboard?
skateboard. momentum is mass times velocity thus if 0 velocity=0 momentum
What is the function of the mass and velocity of moving object?
Momentum
What is a momentum of an object of mass 'm' moving the velocity v?
Momentum is mass times velocity. Note that velocity and speed are not exactly the same thing. Velocity is a term used in physics to define both the speed and the direction of a moving object, so if two objects are moving at the same speed but in opposite directions, they have opposite momentum.
