How do you find magnitude of initial momentum?
INITIAL MOMENTUM = FINAL MOMENTUM ∑M1V1 + M2V2 +… + MnVn = ∑ M1V1 + M1V1 +… + MnVn + or momentum=mass x acceleration unit for momentum=kg x m/sec its confusing...
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 150 kg Spaceship 1 has an initial momentum magnitude of 900 kg ms What is its initial speed?
6m/s
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 150 kg. Spaceship 1 has an initial momentum magnitude of 900 kg-ms. What is its initial speed?
6m/s
When two bodies having same momentum collide what will be the result?
There are two possible results. However, they cannot move in the same direction after the collision.Total initial momentum = p - p = 0where p represent the momentum of each object.From the principle of conservation of momentum;Total initial momentum = Total final momentumThus, Total final momentum = 0There are only two possibilities for this:1. Kinetic energy is conserved. (the collision is perfectly elastic)In this case, they would move away from each other with the same magnitude of initial momentum.2. Kinetic energy is not conserved. (the collision is inelastic)In this case, they would either remain at rest or they will move away from each other with a smaller magnitude of initial momentum each had.Note that if both bodies had moved in the same direction, there would be a net momentum in this direction and momentum would not have been conserved. (Momentum is ALWAYS conserved provided there is no external force acting on the system)

6 m/s 30 m/s
How do you find magnitude of final momentum?
Use this formula:Final momentum = (initial momentum) + (change in momentum)

How is the change in momentum calculated?
IN general change is defined as the difference of initial from the final. So change = Final - Initial. Hence change in momentum = Final momentum - initial momentum
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 150 kg Spaceship 1 has an initial momentum magnitude of 900 kgms What is its initial speed?
6 m/s 30 m/s
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 300 kg Spaceship 1 has an initial momentum magnitude of 9000 kg m s What is its initial speed?
30 m/s - Apex
What Does it Men To Momentum is Conserved?
When momentum is conserved, the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum.
Spaceship 1 and Spaceship 2 have equal masses of 300 kg Spaceship 1 has an initial momentum magnitude of 9000 kg-m s What is its initial speed?
Momentum = (mass) times (velocity)9,000 = 300 x speedSpeed = 9,000 / 300 = 30 meters per second
As momentum of an object decreases what happens to the veocity?
An object that decreases its speed also decreases the magnitude of its velocity and decreases the magnitude of its momentum. Momentum is mass time velocity. Less velocity, less momentum. Technically, velocity is a vector and therefor momentum is a vector. One can speak of smaller or larger magnitudes of a vector, but not smaller and larger vectors because vectors have magnitude and direction. Speed is the magnitude of velocity.
What is the momentum conservation's principle?
After a collision,The initial momentum of a system is equal to final momentum. m1V1=m2V2
