The law of conservation of momentum is implied by Newton's laws of motion, but is a more succinct statement of them.

Which of these is not one of newtons laws of motion?

The law of gravity is not one of Newton's laws of motion. Newton's laws of motion include the first law (inertia), second law (force equals mass times acceleration), and third law (action and reaction).


When 2 objects collide their momentum after the collision is explained by?

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of an isolated system remains constant before and after a collision. This means that the sum of the momenta of the two objects remains the same, even if they exchange momentum during the collision.


What units do you measure force in?

Force is measured as the rate that the momentum of an object changes based on the mass of the object whose momentum is being changed. The unit used is Newtons, and is given as a single kilogram increasing in momentum by 1 meter per second per second.


Which one of newtons laws does magneto illustrate?

the second law


How is newtons first law concidered a concequence of newtons second law of motion?

Actually, the first one is completely independent on the second one. But the second one doesn't make any sense without the first one.


Why is the third law called the law of conservation of momentum?

Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.Since the force is the same in both directions, whatever momentum one object gains, the other loses.

The law of what of momentum states that momentum is never created or destroyed?

I don't think it's the law of momentum that's states that. It's the law of conservation that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can change from one form to another. The law of the conservation of linear momentum states that when the vector sum of the external foreces is equal to zero, the linear momentum of that system remains constant.


An example for Newtons second law?

Well, Newton created laws of motion as a reason to explain phenomena about momentum and different forces acting on an object in different directions. An example of this law would be if I were to push on a box from one side and you were to push the box from the other. The person who is enacted more force on his/her side will be the one to push the box at all.

When does a planet have the greatest angular momentum?

A planet's angular momentum is constant, which is one way of stating Kepler's second law of planetary motion, the one about sweeping out equal areas. The angular momentum of the daily rotation is also constant.
