What is a sentence using the law of conservation of momentum?
When two vehicles collide and come to a stop, the total momentum of the vehicles before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, in accordance with the law of conservation of momentum.
What must you know to determine which of two vehicles traveling at the same velocity has the greater momentum?
To determine which vehicle has the greater momentum, you need to know the mass of each vehicle. Momentum is defined as momentum = mass x velocity, so the vehicle with the greater mass will have the greater momentum. If the vehicles have the same mass, then they will have the same momentum.
How is momentum conserved in a vehicle collision?
That simply means that the total momentum before and after the crash is the same. Please bear in mind that momentum is a vector quantity. Thus, for example, one car moving at 20 m/s (that's 72 km/hour) north, and another car (same mass) that moves at 20 m/s south have a total momentum of zero, because of the way vectors are added.
Why it is hard to stop fast moving and heavy vehicles?
Momentum.
What happens to a vehicles momentum when it crashes into a wall?
it explodes and you die
What two properties does momentum depend on?
Mass and force
What factors does the angular momentum depend upon?
Angular momentum depends on the mass of an object and its rotational speed. The greater the mass or speed, the greater the angular momentum.
If two vehicles are traveling at the same velocity which one has the greater momentum?
The vehicle with the greater mass will have the greater momentum, as momentum is dependent on both velocity and mass.
What quantities does angular momentum depend upon?
mass, velocity, and radius.
What does a moving object have that depends on it's mass and velocity called?
Both momentum and kinetic energy depend on mass and velocity.
Does a 1-kg ball have less momentum or same momentum as a 10-kg ball?
Momentum is mass x velocity, so it would also depend on each ball's velocity.
What is needed for an object to have large momentum?
That would depend on what you consider "large".The size of an object's momentum = (its mass) x (its speed).So, more mass and more speed result in more momentum.
