What does the law of conservation of momentum say about the total amount of momentum after a collision?
the total momentum after a collision must be equal the total momentum before the collision.
How does the momentum of two objects before a collision compare with the momentum after the collision?
conservation of momentum
What is the total momentum of marbles after the collision?
The same as the total momentum before the collision.
How do you conserve momentum?
According to the law of conservation of momentum which states that in a closed system momentum before collision is equal to the momentum after collision.
What factors do you think may cause there to be a difference between the momentum before and the momentum after the collision?
There is a Law of Conservation of Momentum, which states that total momentum is always conserved. In this case, that means that - assuming no additional bodies are involved - the total momentum before the collision will be the same as the total momentum after the collision. It doesn't even matter whether the collision is elastic or not.
Which expression represents the speed v of the masses after the collision?
Total momentum before the collision = total momentum after the collision As a reminder, momentum is the product of velocity and mass.
If a moving ball rolls into a stationary ball the total momentum of both balls after the collision will be?
By the Law of Conservation of Momentum, the total momentum after the collision must be the same as the total momentum before the collision.
A baseball flies through an open window and collides with a vase The momentum of the ball and vase after the collision is?
A baseball flies through an open window and collides with a vase. The momentum of the ball and vase after the collision is the same as the momentum of the ball alone before the collision.
If momentum were conserved the ratio of the total momentum after the collision to the total momentum before the collision would be?
1 +/- two decimal place
What conversation states that the momentum of an object before the collision is equal to the momentum of the object after the collision?
That law is called, precisely, the Law of Conservation of Momentum.
The momentum before a collision of three objects is always greater than the momentum after the collision True or false?
False - the thing to remember is that momentum is conserved.
What is the total momentous before and after collision?
I assume you mean the total MOMENTUM. The momentum depends on the situation. The only thing you can be sure of is that the total momentum after the collision will be the same as the total momentum before the collision. You can often use this to solve problems about collisions.
