How can an elephant have the same momentum as a golfball?

this question has the theoritical answer but it is not yet practically done. according to the theortical answer """"""""yes! elephant have the same momentum as a golf ball<<<<<<<<< Actually, elephants can have the same momentum as a golf ball. the equation for momentum is m x v2. m is mass, v is speed, and the two represents "speed squared". If the golf ball has a huge speed, then yes, it can have the same momentum as the elephant.


Why would you expect the crystals in an intrusive rock to be larger than the crystals in an extrusive rock?

Because intrusive rocks cool more slowly which makes the rocks larger.


What is meant when someone says that an athletic team has a lot of momentum or less its momentum?

More momentum would mean that the team has recently won several games or matches, and opposite for less momentum.


Why would the crystal in an intrusive igneous rock be be larger than the crystals in a chemical sedimentary rock?

Intrusive rocks form beneath the earth's surface, so they cool very slowly, which produces larger crystals.


Why did scientists believe in a neutrino long before it was detected?

This was because of laws of conservation of: momentum, angular momentum, and energy. In certain reactions, these were apparently not conserved; a hypothetical particle would resolve the observed discrepancy.This was because of laws of conservation of: momentum, angular momentum, and energy.

Is it possible for a train to have less momentum than a squirrel?

Momentum is a measure of the force that a moving object has (due to its movement).It is in direct proportion to both the object's mass and velocity. This means a higher mass, or a higher velocity means a higher momentum.Momentum = mass * velocity (p = mv)The mass of a train is vastly more than that of a squirrel.Therefore the only time that a train would have less momentum is when it was not moving, compared to a squirrel that was moving. As soon as a train moves its momentum will be greater.(You can think of it this way: you could overcome the force of a moving squirrel with your hand, but there is no way you could stop a train this way no matter how slowly it was moving.)


How a body can have angular momentum when it is moving in straight line?

If a body is moving in a straight line then it would have angular momentum about any point which is not along its line of motion. The magnitude of the angular momentum would be its velocity times the perpendicular distance between the line of motion and the point.


If a compact car and an SUV were both moving at 50 mph which would have the greater momentum?

Since momentum is mass x velocity, the vehicle with the greater mass would have more momentum in this case.


Why should you not get out of a moving car?

The forward momentum of the car would still push you forward, and you would be dragged on the ground for some time. But if you really want to know for sure, try it. You'll find out pretty quickly why it's not a good thing. With all that said, never, even if a car is moving slowly walk out of a moving car.


Suppose a train car in moving down the track at 10ms hits another train car that is not moving explain how momentum is conserved after the collision?

Conservation of Momentum:The total momentum in a closed or isolated system remains constant. If the two trains are moving as one after the collision, and were the same mass M each, the total momentum before and after the collision would be the same, ccording to the law. Before the collision, the momentum (velocity times mass) was 10 x M units (one train) which must now be the same but applied to two trains (2M) moving as one body. The Conservation of Momentum rule, will tell you that the new moving body, being twice the mass, would be moving half the velocity to conserve the momentum from before the collision.


Would an oil ship moving at 10kmh have more or less momentum than a car moving at a speed of 100 kmh?

momentum is mass x velocity. Even though the car is moving ten times faster, the ship mass is hundreds of times more, so the ship has more momentum


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.


Compare the speed of a moving golf ball with the speed of a moving bowling ball if both balls have the same amount of momentum?

momentum=velocity x mass say a golf ball weighs 1 pound and the bowling ball weighs 5 pounds the golf ball would have to be moving 5 times faster than the bowling ball to have the same momentum


If a compact car and an SUV were both moving at 50 mphwhich would have the greater momentum?

Whichever has the greater mass.


Would a 34 kg ball moving at 8 ms have a greater or lower momentum than the 35 kg ball?

If both balls are moving at the same speed (velocity), the heavier (more massive) will have the greater momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. With identical velocities, the more massive object will have the greater momentum. If a 34 kg ball and a 35 kg ball are both moving at 8 m/s as asked, then the 34 kg ball will have less momentum than the 35 kg ball.
