What happens to the momentum of a meteorite which ultimately burns in the air after entering?
Momentum is always conserved - So, some is transferred to the reactive molecules encountered along the way, some is dissipated by friction, the remainder hits earth and adds it's bit. The momentum spent along the way nevertheless had been added exactly to the earth's total. (Assuming no thingies have been knocked out of orbit by any collision.)
What else can I help you with?
If you increase force keeping the area the same what happens to pressure?
if force increaces and area stays the same then pressure
What happens when a force moves an object over a distance?
Work
What are some REALLY hard science questions?
What was the name of a copyrighted text in 1995.....there's one << OR What happens to space-time when entering a black hole? OR Why can't a charged particle accelerate to the speed of light? OR Why is the speed of light constant?
What happens when another object collides with another object?
Newton's Third Law is closely related to Conservation of Momentum. When objects collide, whether the collision is elastic or not, momentum is conserved. (An elastic collision is one in which mechanical energy is conserved. In an elastic collision, after the collision, the objects go away at the same relative speed at which they approached before the collision.)
What happens when sound waves from one object cause another object to vibrate?
When two objects collide they can undergo three possible collisions: perfectly inelastic, inelastic, and perfectly elastic. The first type, perfectly inelastic, is when the two objects stick together and become one, like the collusion of two cars and their hoods scrunch up. Perfectly elastic, on the other end of the scale, results in rebound of the two objects without any lost to kinetic energy, these collisions only occur at the atomic level. The third category is everything that lies between the two: inelastic. The objects do rebound to a certain degree, but kinetic energy is not conserved. Thus, the energy of motion must be converted to another type of energy. Thus, when two object collide, the most common forms of energy that kinetic energy is converted to are sound energy and thermal energy. A simple proof of the energy conversion is the simple clapping of hands, if you clap long enough, your hands get warmer, and of course sound is produced.
What happens when a meteorite experiences drag?
It slows down.
You throw a ball and accidentally break a glass window Describe the relationship between the momentum of the ball and what happens to the window?
You throw a ball and accidentally break a glass window Describe the relationship between the momentum of the ball and what happens to the window?"It depends on the window and the size of the object you are throwing or using to break it.
What happens to the speed of pursued plane when it returns the fire?
When the pursued plane returns the fire, a conservation of momentum in its speed happens. The momentum after the event will be equal to the momentum before the event.
What happens to momentum in an inelastic collision?
Momentum of the system is conserved.Keep in mind kinetic energy of the system is not conserved
What will happen to the momentum of a moving object if stops without any collision?
You need to frame your question better. A movinng object will not change momentum unless a force acts upon it. A force could be supplied by many things including a collision, gravity, friction What evr happens, energy will be conserved. If friction through air reduces a body's momentum, then the momentum of the of the body will be transfered to momentum of the air particles (which is ultimately seen as heat, and is infact an increase in speed and hence momentum of the molecules
If you drop a suitcase out of a car what happens to the cars momentum?
If you drop a suitcase out of a moving car, the momentum of the car will decrease as there will be less mass, therefore less momentum. :)
What happens to the leniar momentum when force is absent?
Nothing. Momentum is mass in kg x velocity in m/s.
What happens on entering a Gurdwara?
you fart
When two cueballs collide what happens to the momentum?
When two cueballs collide, momentum is conserved. This means that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision. The cueballs will transfer momentum between them during the collision, but the overall momentum of the system remains the same.
What happens to a vehicles momentum when it crashes into a wall?
it explodes and you die
What happens to the momentum if the mass stays the same but the velocity is increased?
If the mass stays the same but the velocity is increased, the momentum of the object will also increase. Momentum is directly proportional to velocity, so an increase in velocity will result in a proportionate increase in momentum.
What happens to the momentum of one object when it colides with another object if they are travelling in the same dirction?
Some momentum is transferred from one to the other.
