A ball rolls down a hill and hits a box the momentum of the ball decreases what happens to its momentum?
Momentum (as energy) isn't lost, it is transferred. Momentum is lost to friction when the ball is rolling, but in the described situation, the momentum is basically all transferred to the box upon impact. The box may tip over if light enough, or the box may break, or if heavy enough and built well enough, the box may absorb the impact and be left seemingly untouched. If the ball continues to roll after impact (if it bounces over/around/off of the box, then only partial momentum has been transferred to the box.
What else can I help you with?
A ball roll down the hill and hits a box the momentum of the ball decreases which happen to the momentum?
The momentum of the ball decreases because some of its momentum is transferred to the box upon collision. This conservation of momentum is described by the law of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a closed system remains constant before and after a collision.
What happens to the distance a ball rolls if the friction decreases?
If friction decreases, the ball will roll farther since there is less force resisting its motion. Friction between the ball and the surface slows it down, so reducing friction allows the ball to maintain its speed and travel a greater distance.
What happens to the momentum of the bowling ball when it hits pins?
Energy is transferred to the pins and the deflection and contact of the pins will typically slow the ball momentum.
When a ball is thrown up the magnitude of its momentum decreases and then increases.Does this violate the conservation of momentum principle?
No, this does not violate the conservation of momentum principle. As the ball is thrown up, its vertical velocity decreases, causing a decrease in momentum in that direction. However, the overall momentum of the ball (including horizontal and vertical components) remains constant in the absence of external forces. When the ball reaches its highest point and falls back down, its vertical velocity increases again, conserving the total momentum of the system.
If a moving ball rolls into a stationary ball the total momentum of both balls after the collision will be?
By the Law of Conservation of Momentum, the total momentum after the collision must be the same as the total momentum before the collision.
When a ball rolls down a hill and gains momentum is the law of momentum conservation violated?
No it is not! The hill is moving in the opposite direction. You do not perceive the motion of the hill since it move sooo slowly... When the ball will stop with respect to the hill (for instance because of an obstacle rigidly connected to the hill) then the hill will stop too. And the potential energy of the ball will be transformed into heat and sound.
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.
Does gravity stop a ball from rolling?
Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. When an object slows down, the object reduces in velocity. Since Mass is constant, when velocity reduces momentum reduces. thus momentum can be what stops a rolling object. However, a resistive force the reason for the reduction of velocity and subsequently halting.
Why is the momentum of a billiard ball change as is rolls on a billiard table?
The answer is rather simple. Even though a billiard ball is smooth, when it rolls it imparts some of its kinetic energy to the felt covering of the table. That is, the felt heats up a bit as the ball slows down.
If a ball rolls foul then hits right corner of 1st base then rolls in after 1st base is it fair or foul?
As soon as the ball touches first base, it is a fair ball, regardless of what happens after that.
The momentum of a bowling ball decreases by 0.5 kg meters per second when it hits some pins How much momentum did the pins gain Explain?
The pins gained the same amount of momentum that the bowling ball lost, according to the law of conservation of momentum. So, the pins gained 0.5 kg meters per second of momentum in the opposite direction to the bowling ball's initial momentum.
How does the mass of a ball effect how far it rolls?
The mass of a ball affects how far it rolls by influencing its momentum. A heavier ball will have more inertia and thus require more force to get it moving. Once in motion, the heavier ball will have more kinetic energy which can help it roll further.
