The momentum of an object is in the same direction as what?
The momentum of an object is in the same direction as its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity that depends on both an object's mass and its velocity. When an object moves in a certain direction, its momentum points in the same direction as its velocity.
Does momentum have a direction?
Momentum is mass x velocity; velocity has a direction, therefore momentum has a direction.Momentum is mass x velocity; velocity has a direction, therefore momentum has a direction.Momentum is mass x velocity; velocity has a direction, therefore momentum has a direction.Momentum is mass x velocity; velocity has a direction, therefore momentum has a direction.
The momentum of an objects is in the same what as its velocity?
The direction of an object's momentum is the same as its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity that takes into account both an object's mass and its velocity, so a change in velocity will result in a change in momentum.
An objects momentum is the same direction as it's what?
An object's momentum is in the same direction as its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so it carries the same direction as the object's motion.
Momentum has the same direction of what?
Velocity!
How do collisions exemplify the law of conservation of momentum?
The vector sum of momenta before and after the collision is the same. One way to visualize this is that if one of the colliding objects changes its momentum (mass x velocity) in one direction, then the other colliding object must needs change its momentum in the opposite direction - by the same amount, except for the direction.
Is momentum inversely proportional to velocity?
No, momentum is directly proportional to velocity, and in the same direction..
Is the momentum of a car traveling south different from that of the same car when it travels north at the same speed?
No, since it's a vector quantity and has direction. The two automobiles will have the same absolute value, but will be the negation of one another, for example 50 and -50.
Is the momentum of the car travelling north different from the one of the same car when it travels south at the same speed?
Momentum is a vector. This means it has magnitude and direction. The magnitude will be the same. But the sign will be different. If north is positive, south will be negative. This is the only difference.
How does the direction of momentum compare to the direction of velocity?
Momentum is a vector quantity that is proportional to velocity. The direction of momentum is the same as the direction of velocity, but momentum includes the mass of the object in addition to its velocity.
Why does momentum have a direction?
Momentum is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. The direction of momentum is the same as the direction of the velocity of an object. This is because momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity, and velocity has a direction.
What is formula of momentum?
The units are KgMs- why? Velocity is a vector Quantity and mass is a scalar quantity.
