How can a slowly docking boat and a speeding rifle bullet both have a large amount of momentum?
Momentum = mass * Velocity. Boat has large mass but low velocity
Bullet has small mass but high velocity.
Momentum is a function of speed and mass. A slowly docking boat has a low speed, but the boat will have huge mass, therefore the momentum will be a large amount. The bullet has very low mass, but huge speed, and so, again, the momentum will be large.

Why does a speeding bullet and a fact moving train have so much force?
A speeding bullet and a fast-moving train have a lot of force because of their momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, so the greater the speed and mass of an object, the more force it has. In the case of a bullet or a train, their high velocity and mass result in a significant amount of force when they collide with another object.
Why do both you slowly docking ferry boat and a speedy rifle bullet have a large amount of momentum?
Both the ferry boat and the rifle bullet have large amounts of momentum because momentum is determined by the mass and velocity of an object. Even though the ferry boat is moving slowly but has a large mass, while the rifle bullet is moving quickly but has a much smaller mass, their momentum values end up being significant due to the combination of these two factors.
Why is the momentum of a bullet equal to that of a gun?
By Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a gun fires a bullet, the bullet gains momentum in one direction, causing the gun to recoil in the opposite direction with an equal amount of momentum. So the momentum of the bullet is equal in magnitude to the momentum of the gun, but in opposite directions.
Why does a speeding bullet and a train have so much force?
Each of those items has large momentum and kinetic energy ... the bullet because of its high speed, and the train on account of its large mass.
Why does a speeding bullet and a moving train have so much force?
Each of those items has large momentum and kinetic energy ... the bullet because of its high speed, and the train on account of its large mass.
Why does a slow-moving loaded truck and a speeding rifle bullet each have a large momentum?
Both the loaded truck and the rifle bullet have large momentum because momentum depends on both mass and velocity. Even though the truck is moving slowly but has a large mass, and the rifle bullet is moving very fast with a relatively small mass, both contribute to their large momentum values.
How fast is Peyton Manning?
Faster than a speeding bullet.
What is the total momentum of the bullet and the gun before firing?
The total momentum of the bullet and the gun before firing is zero, as the gun and the bullet are at rest. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity, and since both the gun and the bullet are not moving, their momentum is zero.
How does a bullet fired from a gun have ahigh momentum?
Momentum = mass x velocity A bullet has a high momentum because its velocity is really high.
Which has more momentum a gun or the bullet it fires?
If the gun is stationary before the shot, then the momentum of the gun and the momentum of the bullet are equal and opposite after the shot.
What actors and actresses appeared in Speeding Bullet - 2004?
The cast of Speeding Bullet - 2004 includes: Greg Carlson as C.K.
What form of energy does a speeding bullet have?
A speeding bullet has kinetic energy, which is the energy associated with its motion. As the bullet travels, it carries this kinetic energy due to its velocity and mass.
