When a person jumps from a tree to the ground what happens to the momentum of the person upon landing on the ground?
Many think the momentum would be lost but instead it is transferred. It was transferred to the Earth in a collision. But since the has a huge mass it will not affect the Earth.
What is it called when momentum can be transferred but the total momentum does not change?
conservation of momentum
What is convesation of momentum?
The law of conservation of momentum states that momentum cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred. In other words when you hit the wall with your fist, the wall gains the momentum your fist had while it was flying through the air toward the wall.
Which type of particles are transferred during static charging?
Neutrons & Electrons. Protons cannot be transferred, lost or gained.
Which law states that the total momentum does not change when it's transferred?
The law of conservation states that the total momentum does not change when it is transferred.

conservation of momentum
A ball rolls down a hill and hits a box the momentum of the ball decreases what happens to its momentum?
Momentum (as energy) isn't lost, it is transferred. Momentum is lost to friction when the ball is rolling, but in the described situation, the momentum is basically all transferred to the box upon impact. The box may tip over if light enough, or the box may break, or if heavy enough and built well enough, the box may absorb the impact and be left seemingly untouched. If the ball continues to roll after impact (if it bounces over/around/off of the box, then only partial momentum has been transferred to the box.

The law of conservation of momentum states that when two objects collide their combined momentum?
False $manning boi the great$
Momentum is a property of an object and cannot be transferred from that object to another object?
Momentum of an object is its own property but it can be transferred by that object to any other object during their collision ( elastic or inelastic ) so as to conserve the total momentum of the system as demonstrated by the law of conservation of momentum. One of the examples of the transferring of momentum is the transfer of momentum and incident energy from photons of x rays to the loosely bound electrons in graphite target in Compton effect.
What is transferred during a collision?
momentum
How does impulse related to linear momentum?
Impulse is integral of linear momentum with respect to time, and in limits when that momentum was transferred.
What happens to the hammer's momentum after the hammer hits the nail?
The momentum and energy is transferred to the nail.
Conservation of linear momentum exp?
Linear momentum is mass times velocity. For a single point object, momentum is conserved, because the object will continue to move at a constant velocity. Nor will its mass change either. For a group of objects, too: When momentum is transferred, for example during a collision, any momentum lost by one object is gained by another. The total momentum remains constant.
