What does conversation of momentum mean?
Conservation of momentum means that momentum is a constant and the change of momentum or force is zero.
If the velocity is constant does that mean that the impulse is the momentum?
impulse = change in momentum so, no
What does change in momentum mean?
It means that the momentum increases, decreases, or simply changes its direction. The latter is because momentum is a vector quantity (that is, the direction is relevant). Momentum is defined as the product of velocity and mass.
What does momentum mean in science?
Momentum of a body is got by the product of its mass and velocity. If the concerned body is at rest then momentum is ZERO. If m is the mass and v is the velocity then mv is the momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity. Its unit is kg m/s
What does RHO mean in Physics?
Rho is used in the eqation for Momentum ( it represents momentum, and is written as a p) which is as follows: p (momentum)= M (mass) X V (velocity)
What does consevation mean?
your life how it's looked after and what you eat well everything really by analie joyce
Is culling consevation?
Yes
What does it mean to say momentum is conserved?

What does conversation of momentum mean?

Does the p in p mv mean position?
No it does not. It represents momentum.
How does launching your rocket relate to this law of motion?
If a rocket is at rest (zero momentum) in outer space, where there is no gravity, then as long as there are no Outside forces on it its momentum must always be zero (consevation of momentum). This must be true even if an internal explosion brakes it into pieces. The pieces must fly off in such a way that their net vector momentum is zero. Turning on the engine is like an internal explosion. The hot gasses, which have mass, are ejected out the back at high velocity so the gas has momentum. In order to keep the total momentum zero the rocket must move forward so its momentum just equals the backward momentum of the gasses and the net momentum of both is zero. The same is almost true when taking off from earth. Because of the Earth's gravity(outside force) the upward momentum of the rocket won't quite equal the downward momentum of the gasses but its almost the same.
What does momentum of an object mean?
Momentum is the product of mass x velocity.
What is law of consevation of mass with experiment?
physical chemical
If the velocity is constant does that mean that the impulse is the momentum?
impulse = change in momentum so, no
How will balls move if they collide and stick together?
Consevation of momentum applies. The final compond mass must have the same momentum as the net momentum of the two balls before the collision. Remember, momentum is a vector and direction is important. For example if the two balls are moving toward each other with the same momentum, the net momentum is zero because they are moving in opposite directions. So the compound ball will not move. Or, if ball 1 is moving left and has a greater momentum then ball 2 ,moving right, then the compound ball will move left. Its momentum will equal the difference between the two momentums because when you add two vectors in opposite directions you subtract their magnitudes. Mechanical energy (potential + kinetic) is not conserved in this collision because some mechanical energy is lost as heat in the collision.
How do you find the momentum with no velocity?
It is unclear what you mean. If you mean that you want to find momentum but do not have a value for velocity then it depends on what physical system you are using. If you want to find the momentum of an object with a velocity equal to zero then the momentum is zero. Answer2. You can find the momentum from its the integral of its force impulse fdt = d(mv). The momentum is mv= integral of fdt.
What is meant when someone says that an athletic team has a lot of momentum or less its momentum?
More momentum would mean that the team has recently won several games or matches, and opposite for less momentum.
