What is the relationship between velocity and inertia?
Newtons First Law of Motion states that an object with a given momentum will continue to posses that same momentum until the object is acted on by a force in which case it will undergo a change in momentum. Inertia is a measure of an objects tendency to resist a change in momentum. Massive bodies have a large inertia. If a massive body is in motion its momentum is given by the product of the mass and the velocity of that body. Newtons first law says that if a force acts on this body its momentum will change. But since the body has a large inertia this change is small. For example, if a small space pebble collides with a large asteroid that has a constant velocity and thus constant momentum, the force is small relative to the inertia of the asteroid so the momentum only changes a little bit.
What is the Momentum law that states that the total momentum of an object is constant if no outside force acts on it?
Law of inertia? Newtons first law.
If a force of 90 Newtons was exerted on an object and no work was done would the object gain momentum?
it would remain motionless.
What is the inertia of motion?
Inertia of motion is the resistance mass has to motion. It also is the resistance in change in momentum. Momentum includes two things: velocity and direction. When an object changes its velocity, the momentum of the object resists the change. Also, when an object does change its velocity, its momentum is directly changed. In general, the inertia of motion is matter's unwillingness to change velocity or momentum.
Object A strikes object B the momentum of object B increase what happens to the momentum of object A?
You can't think of momentum as simply "increasing" and "decreasing" - you have to consider momentum as a vector.If in a collision one object's momentum changes by a certain amount, call it "a", the momentum of the other object will change by the opposite amount, "-a" - both "a" and "-a" are vectors that add up to zero. If you consider only the magnitudes of the momentum, by conservation of energy the momenta can't both increase - but they can certainly both decrease, when objects collide head-on.
When two object collide their momentum after the collision is explained by?
Newtons law
What units do you measure force in?
Force is measured as the rate that the momentum of an object changes based on the mass of the object whose momentum is being changed. The unit used is Newtons, and is given as a single kilogram increasing in momentum by 1 meter per second per second.

What relationship is there between force and time according to the impulse equattion?
The impulse equation states that "momentum is equal to the product of force and change in time", or p=FΔt. If an average force of 5 Newtons is applied to an object over a period of 20 seconds, its momentum will be 100 N*s. ~Zenichi
What is the momentum law the states that the total momentum of an object is constant if no outside force acts on it?
Law of inertia? Newtons first law.

Theorem that states that an impulse produces a change in momentum?
It is called the momentum-impulse theorem and states that an impulse will change the momentum of an object. For example, if you drop an object when it hits the ground an impulse occurs. The momentum of the object also changes. Jnet = deltap, where deltap is the change in momentum.
If a force of 90 Newtons was exerted on an object and no work was done would the object gain momentum?
it would remain motionless.
An object of mass 3.0 kg is projected into the air at an angle of 55 degrees It hits the ground 3.4s later What is the change in momentum while it is in the air?
The initial momentum is 61.0 Newton-seconds at an elevation of 55 degrees to the horizontal while the final momentum has the same magnitude but is at a depression of 55 degrees. This represents a change in momentum of 70 Newton-seconds.

When an object changes its velocity, the momentum of the object resists the change. Also, when an object does change its velocity, its momentum is directly changed. In general, the inertia of motion is matter's unwillingness to change velocity or momentum.
What is newtons scond law of motion?
Newton’s Second Law of Motion states that the rate of change of an object’s momentum is directly proportional to the force which caused it, and takes place in the direction of the force.
Object A strikes object B the momentum of object B increase what happens to the momentum of object A?
You can't think of momentum as simply "increasing" and "decreasing" - you have to consider momentum as a vector.If in a collision one object's momentum changes by a certain amount, call it "a", the momentum of the other object will change by the opposite amount, "-a" - both "a" and "-a" are vectors that add up to zero.
