When would the linear momentum of a truck be greater than that of a bus?
Since momentum equals mass times velocity, if the mass of the truck times its velocity is greater than the mass of the bus times the bus' velocity then the momentum of the truck will be greater than the momentum of the bus.
Is the momentum of a 5000kg truck that is still standing is greater than the momentum of a 3000kg truck that is also at rest?
No.
Which has the greater mass a heavy truck at rest or a rolling skateboard which has greater momentum?
The truck has the most mass, but because it is at rest, the skateboard has the most momentum.
Is the momentum of a 5000 kg truck standing still greater than the momentum of a 3000 kg truck standing still?
No.
Is it true that the momentum of a 5000-kg truck that is standing still is greater than the momentum of a 3000-kg truck that is also at rest?
No
A car and a truck are traveling at the same speedWhich has more momentum why?
If a car and a truck are traveling at the same speed, the truck would have more momentum because it has a greater mass.
Which truck has more momentum a 2000kg truckor a 2kg truck?
That would depend on their velocity (speed with direction), since the formula for momentum is momentum=Mass*Velocity. If they are moving at the same Velocity, the heavier of the two would have greater momentum.
Does a truck have more momentum than a car?
Yes. At the same velocity, a truck would have more momentum than a car as it has greater mass. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity: ρ=mv
Which has a greater momentum a heavy truck at rest or a moving skeatboard?
skateboard. momentum is mass times velocity thus if 0 velocity=0 momentum
What has more inertia a truck or a skateboard?
skateboard.....if velocity is zero,then momentum is also zero.
Who has greater momentum an 18-wheeler parked at the curb or a volkswagen rolling down a hill?
Momentum = mass * velocityTherefore the Volswagen rolling down the hill has greater momentum than the truck which is sationary.Volkswagen: momentum = mass * velocityTruck: momentum = mass * 0 = 0
Which has a greater momentum a small pick up truck traveling at 55km an hour or a full-sized bus traveling at the same speed?
Momentum is mass times velocity, if the velocity of the two are the same, the object with the greater mass will have proportionally greater momentum.
