Is acceleration used to calculate momentum?

You may see acceleration mentioned in a momentum problem; but if it's there, it's only purposeis to help you find the object's velocity.All you need to know in order to find momentum is the object's mass and velocity.


What is used to measure momentum?

A scale, a stopwatch and a ruler. Weigh the object of which you want to know the momentum, and determine its speed using the stopwatch and ruler. The momentum can then be calculated as the product of the weight and the speed.


What is the formula used to determine momentum?

p=mv


What is the product of an object's mass and its velocity?

The product of an object's mass and its velocity is called its momentum. Sometimes it is also called linear momentum, to distinguish it from angular momentum - however, when the word "momentum" is used alone, it usually refers to linear momentum.


Momentum is the product of what two quantities?

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity. The formula for momentum is: momentum (p) = mass (m) * velocity (v).


Can momentum apply a force?

No, momentum is a property of an object in motion that is determined by its mass and velocity. It does not apply a force itself, but can be used to analyze how forces acting on an object change its motion.


What is the momentum triangle?

The momentum triangle is a concept used in physics to illustrate the conservation of momentum in a system. It shows how the momentum of an object can change when interacting with another object, taking into account both the direction and magnitude of the momentum vectors involved. It is a valuable tool for understanding and analyzing collisions and other interactions between objects.


Does a moving object have impluse?

More or less. Actually, a moving object has momentum - defined as mass times velocity. The word "impulse" is used for transfer of momentum, for example, in a collision. It has the same units as momentum, but the use of the word "impulse" seems inappropriate in this context.


What is a place or object used in comparison to determine if an object is in motion is a?

A reference point is a place or object used in comparison to determine if an object is in motion. It serves as a frame of reference to establish the motion of an object relative to a fixed point.


What charactristics of an object determine which measuring devices are used to determine its dimension?

shape ,physical properties, status of an object


Which of these is not used to determine the age of an object?

magnetometer


What is a fixed object used to determine the movement of another object?

A reference point is a fixed object used to determine the movement of another object. It serves as a stationary position against which motion or change can be measured or tracked.
