When the mass of a moving object is doubled with no change in speed. by which factor is its momentum changed?

KE=(1/2)(m)(v2)
since speed is absolute value of velocity, but velocity is squared,
(speed)2=(velocity)2
then doubling the speed with no change in mass will change the KE by a factor of;
22=4

In a experiment a is any factor that can change or be changed?
variable
What is veriable?
When something is variable, it means it can and does change, sometimes a lot. A variable is a factor or condition in an experiment that can change. Some are changed by you, some are changed by other variables and some are kept the same by you.
What is the variable that is changed by a scientist in a experiment?
The dependent variable is the variable that can change in an experiment.
What is a factor that cannot be changed during a experiment?
A constant factor is one maintained unchanged throughout an experiment so that it does not affect the outcome. These are also referred to as controlled variables.
Is an independent variable the factor that is changed in an experiment?
no, a dependant variable is.
If the mass of a moving object is doubled with no change in velocity what would be the change in momentum?
It doubles. Momentum (p) is the product of velocity (v) and mass (m). For a given mass, if you double the velocity, you'll double the momentum. Velocity and momentum are said to be directly proportional. p = m x v
How does the frequency of a wave change when the period of a wave is doubled?
The frequency is the reciprocal of the period. If the period is doubled, the frequency will change by a factor of 1/2.
If the volume of a ube is increased by factor of 8 what is the change in the length of the sides of the cube?
It is doubled.
A cube has a side of 3 units If each side is doubled how has the total area changed?
The area increases by a factor of 4.
If the absolute temperature of a radiator is doubled by what factor does the radiating power change?
Stefan-Boltzmann equation, power is proportional to T4, so if T is doubled power increases by a factor of 16.

What does it mean to say momentum is directly proportional to mass and velocity?
Being proportional means that if you change one by a given factor, the other will change by that factor as well. Being proprtional to both means it is proportional to their product, i.e. momentum equals mass times velocity, p = mv.
In a scientific experiment a is any factor that can be change or changed?
variable
What will be the effect on the force between two objects if the charges on both are doubled?
If the magnitude of each of two charges is doubled, then the direction of the force between them doesn't change, but its magnitude increases by a factor of 4.
What are the changes that occur in the volume when the side lengths of the base of a rectangular prism are doubled?
The volume of any solid is proportional to each of its three dimensions.So if one dimension is doubled, the volume increases by the factor of 21 = 2 .And if two dimensions are doubled, the volume increases by the factor of 22 = 4 .And if each dimension is doubled, the volume increases by the factor of 23 = 8.
The factor that scientists change is called IT'S NOT VARIABLES I'M SURE?
The factor changed is the independant varible, the thing that the scientist can change each time they run the experiment.
