What is the momentum of a 500 kg truck before it strikes a 300 kg parked car?
Momentum defined as p=mv.. The momentum of the truck depends on its velocity
When does a car have momentum?
Momentum = Mass x Velocity. (p=m*v)The mass of an object made of matter can not be zero.If the object (car) is moving, then the velocity will be non-zero, and the object will have non-zero momentum.So, if you are driving or rolling the car, it has momentum.If it is parked, then it will have 0 velocity (with respect to the earth), and thus will have 0 momentum.So, when the car is moving, it has net momentum. When it is parked it has zero momentum. I then just becomes a mater of semantics whether having zero momentum is equivalent to not having momentum, or if it is actually a valid value for momentum or state of momentum.
A 1250 kg car is moving down the street with a velocity of 32.0 m/s bumps into a parked car ahead of it which has a mass of 875 kg. the parked car moves away with velocity of 6 m/s?

What does Momentum do?
Momentum is basically the amount of force it takes to slow something down. Force is Mass times Acceleration, so weight and speed are a factor. A large object like a bus, moving at even a slow speed has a lot of momentum. It would take a lot of force to slow it down. A bullet would have a fair bit of momentum because of it's high speed, but not because of it's low weight. A bus traveling at the speed of a bullet would have a rediculous amount of momentum.

Who is liable in a rear end collision if the car that was rear ended was parked?
As long as the parked vehicle is parked properly and not illegally parked in any manner, then the vehicle that rear-ended the parked car is at fault. Now if the parked car is sitting illegally (such as double parked or parked in a no parking zone, etc.) then the parked car is at fault or even both the parked car AND the car that hits it are BOTH at fault.
A 500kg truck moving a 30ms strikes a parked car and they connect together and move forward what is the speed of the car and truck as they move forward connected together?
Momentum = mass x velocity. You already stated the mass and velocity so you can figure out the momentum.
If a Car rolls into a car parked in a disabled spot?
The car that rolled into the parked car is at fault.
Who be be at fault if you hit an illegally parked car in Atlanta even if the illegally parked car was in a blind spot and the space where the car was parked illegally was too close for comfront?
It would be the car who had parked illegally because he was not parked in a legal spot.
Who is liable if an insured car is hit into a parked car and the car that hit the insured car into the parked car gets away?
If a car is parked (so it wasnt moving, standing still), the other car is in fault.
What happens in terms of energy when a moving car hits a parked car causing the parked car to move?
When a moving car hits a parked car, energy is transferred from the moving car to the parked car. The kinetic energy of the moving car is transferred to the parked car, causing it to move. Some energy is also converted into other forms, like sound and heat, during the collision.
Who pays when a parked car is hit?
The driver of the car that was driving when the accident occured. The owner of the parked car should not be responsible unless the car was parked in an illegal place or position.
Who is at fault when a parked car in parking lot is hit?
depends on whether or not the car is parked well. if the car is parked properly, in the right spot then it should be the car that hit it that is at fault.
