When one walks forward he interacts with the earth what is the momentumm of the recoil of the earth why don't we feel it?

Without getting into the difference between linear and angular momentum, it should be enough to simply point out that the Earth's mass is equal to the mass of something like 60 thousand billion billions of you, and that for equal momentum, the velocities would be in the inverse of the same ratio.


What is her momentum if Amy has a mass of 30 kg and she is riding a skateboard traveling 5 meters per second?

Her momentum is 150 kg . m/s.The formula for momentum is:p = m x v,where:p = momentumm = massv = velocityKnownm = 30 kgv = 5 m/sMomentump = 30 kg x 5 m/s = 150 kg . m/s


Which has a greater momentum a heavy truck at rest or a moving automobile?

The momentum of any object depends on its mass and its speed. If a car and a bike are both moving at the same speed, then the car has more momentum because it has more mass than the bike. If the car and the bike are moving at different speeds, then we need to know the speeds of each, in order to make any determination about their respective momenta.


How do you caculate the momentum of an object?

The momentum of an object can be calculated by the formula mv=momentum where m is the mass and v is the velocity.Here is another formula that may be of some help (it is the formula for the impulse-momentum relationship):Ft=(delta)(mv)F stands for the impact force and t stands for the impact time. Ft together equals the impulse. m stands for the mass and v stands for the velocity. (delta)(mv) together equals the change in the momentum.
