Best Answer

A change in momentum exists whenever a force acts on an object, and the magnitude of the change is dependent on the mass of the object on which the force acts.

One object that has a momentum is a computer.

That's the object's linear momentum.


What does the impulse-momentum theorem state?

Impulse equals change in momentum. "Apex" The final momentum of any object (or collection of objects) must equal to its initial momentum plus any impulse imparted to the object (or collection of objects).


What is the equasion used to determine the momentum of an object?

A measurement of the motion of something. This is equal to the product of the moving objects's mass times it's velocity?

== == Momentum is the product of the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity (or speed). Momentum is conserved so if a moving object hits a staionary object the total momentum of the two objects after the collision is the same as the momentum of the original moving object.


What is a example of a momentum of zero?

An object at rest. Actually that's the only possible example for a single object. For two objects, you can have objects moving in opposite directions; for example, one may have a momentum of +100 units, and the other, a momentum of -100 units.


Describe the momentum of objects at rest?

momentum is the tendency of an object to stay in motion or the force (energy) required to stop an objects motion. an object at rest (not moving) has no momentum.


What is the equation you use determine the momentum of an object?

Is an object's momentum directly proportional to an objects velocity?

Yes.


Product of an objects mass and velocity?

That's the object's "momentum".
