In an isolated system where no external forces are acting, momentum is conserved during the interval of collision. This means the total momentum of the objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the objects after the collision.
Conservation of momentum means that the speed of the nucleus (the combined nucleus, after absorbing the neutron), must change, yes.
A force is required to change momentum.An "impulse" refers to the amount of momentum transferred; impulse can be defined as force x time (more precisely: the corresponding integral).
I don't see how anything can "act against momentum"; momentum is always conserved. If there is friction, the movement of the object will be slowed down; but in this case, momentum is transferred to the air, or whatever is slowing down the object in question. Total momentum will be conserved.
Momentum of an object is its own property but it can be transferred by that object to any other object during their collision ( elastic or inelastic ) so as to conserve the total momentum of the system as demonstrated by the law of conservation of momentum. One of the examples of the transferring of momentum is the transfer of momentum and incident energy from photons of x rays to the loosely bound electrons in graphite target in Compton effect.
Yes, momentum can be transferred from one object to another through collisions or interactions. In a closed system where there is no external force acting, the total momentum remains constant before and after the interaction.
Yes, momentum is conserved in elastic collisions. This means that the total momentum of the objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the objects after the collision.
In collisions, momentum is conserved. This means that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, unless external forces are involved. The distribution of momentum among the objects may change, but the total momentum remains the same.
Momentum that can be transferred but not lost is called conserved momentum. This means that the total momentum of a system remains constant before and after a collision or interaction.
The law of conservation states that the total momentum does not change when it is transferred.
In elastic collisions, kinetic energy and momentum are conserved, meaning the total energy and momentum before and after the collision are the same. In inelastic collisions, kinetic energy is not conserved, and some of the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy, such as thermal or sound energy. In both types of collisions, momentum is conserved.
Momentum and energy are conserved during collisions. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity, while energy is the capacity to do work. In an isolated system, the total momentum and total energy before and after a collision will remain constant.
That is called an elastic collision, where momentum is transferred between objects but the total momentum remains constant. This means that the kinetic energy is conserved during the collision.
In inelastic collisions, momentum is not conserved. This is because some of the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy, such as heat or sound, during the collision.
Yes, momentum is conserved during collisions. This means that the total momentum of the objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the objects after the collision, as long as no external forces are acting on the system.
