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.
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.
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 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 sense is used to determine an object's texture?
Touch is a sense that is used to determine an objects texture
What units do you measure force in?
Force is measured as the rate that the momentum of an object changes based on the mass of the object whose momentum is being changed. The unit used is Newtons, and is given as a single kilogram increasing in momentum by 1 meter per second per second.
What is a momentum of an object of mass 'm' moving the velocity v?
Momentum is mass times velocity. Note that velocity and speed are not exactly the same thing. Velocity is a term used in physics to define both the speed and the direction of a moving object, so if two objects are moving at the same speed but in opposite directions, they have opposite momentum.
Can an object have momentum and kinetic energy but have no force?
Because momentum has a direction, it can be used to predict the resulting direction of objects. An elastic collision is one in which no kinetic energy is lost.
What can be used to determine weight of object?
beam balance
