How do forces cause a change in an object's momentum?
A force acting on a body causes acceleration. Acceleration is measure of the rate of change in the object's velocity. As its velocity changes, its momentum, which is the product of its mass and velocity, will change.
When velocity may change?
Velocity can only change if the object experiences an acceleration. Acceleration can only change if either the Force on the object increases, or the Mass of the object decreases.
The more mass an object has the harder it is to change its what?
Its velocity.Its velocity.Its velocity.Its velocity.
If velocity decreases then does its momentum?
Momentum is the product of mass times velocity. With less velocity, there will be less momentum. (An object's mass will usually not change.)
Which word equation is used to calculate the acceleration of a object?
Acceleration is "force divided by mass" or "change in velocity with respect to change in time".
As long as an object is not gaining or losing mass a net force on the object will cause a change in?
Velocity

What is a force that can cause an object to change its speed and direction?
A basic physics answer for this is that a net force (or unbalanced force) will cause an object to accelerate, that is, cause the object to change its speed and/or direction.
When does a force change the velocity of an object?
If the object is in free-space, and any force applied over a period of time will change the velocity of an object. Force = mass * acceleration. Acceleration = velocity / time. Therefore, Force = mass * velocity/time.
When velocity may change?
Velocity can only change if the object experiences an acceleration. Acceleration can only change if either the Force on the object increases, or the Mass of the object decreases.
The more mass an object has the harder it is to change its what?
Its velocity.Its velocity.Its velocity.Its velocity.
If velocity decreases then does its momentum?
Momentum is the product of mass times velocity. With less velocity, there will be less momentum. (An object's mass will usually not change.)
What kind force moves an object away?
By definition, any force enacts a change in momentum. Momentum is mass times velocity, so a force is a change in mass and/or velocity. Since mass is usually constant, any force therefore enacts a change in velocity, and thus moves an object away.

What is the property of an objects mass and velocity?
An object's mass and its velocity define the object's MOMENTUM.
The mass of an object in kilograms times its velocity is?
The mass of a object in kilograms times its velocity is its momentum.
