What happen to a vehicle's momentum when it crashes into a wall?
The vehicle's momentum decreases quickly as it comes to a stop upon impact with the wall. The force of the crash dissipates the vehicle's kinetic energy, transferring it to the wall and causing damage to both the vehicle and the wall.
Would momentum conserved in the larger apple earth system?
Yes, momentum is conserved in the larger apple-Earth system. When the apple falls towards Earth, it gains momentum in the downward direction while Earth gains an equal amount of momentum in the opposite direction. The total momentum of the system remains constant, demonstrating the principle of conservation of momentum.
Is momentum destroyed when a falling ball strikes the earth?
Momentum is conserved in a closed system, so when a falling ball strikes the Earth, the Earth will experience an equal and opposite force from the ball, resulting in a transfer of momentum. The total momentum of the system (ball and Earth) remains the same before and after the collision.
As a ball falls toward earth the momentum of the ball increases How would you reconcile this observation with the law of conservation of momentum?
The principle of conservation of momentum is not satisfied, since the sum of external forces is not equal to zero, if the ball falls the net force is equal to the weight, makes the ball Vary your speed and therefore their momentum.
What is the momentum of the recoil of the earth why dont you feel it?
The momentum of the recoil of the Earth due to, say, a person jumping, is extremely small due to the Earth's large mass compared to the person's mass. You do not feel this recoil because the Earth is so massive that the acceleration caused by your jump is negligible in comparison to the Earth's overall mass. This makes the recoil momentum insignificant and not noticeable.
What is A lunar vehicle is tested on the earth at a speed of 12km. when it travels at the same speed on the moon is its momentum greater less or the same?
The momentum of an object is calculated as the product of its mass and velocity (momentum = mass × velocity). While the lunar vehicle travels at the same speed of 12 km/h on the Moon as it does on Earth, its mass remains unchanged. However, since the gravitational pull on the Moon is less than on Earth, the vehicle's weight is reduced, but this does not affect its momentum. Therefore, the momentum of the vehicle will be the same on both the Earth and the Moon at that speed.

The vehicle's momentum decreases quickly as it comes to a stop upon impact with the wall. The force of the crash dissipates the vehicle's kinetic energy, transferring it to the wall and causing damage to both the vehicle and the wall.
What is an important requirement for a vehicle that travels through space?
that it has rockets booster so it can get off earth into space
TheI momentum of a skydiver increases as speed increases does the momentum of the earth simultaneously change how much and in what direction how does the system made up of the earth and the skydiver?
For a simple answer, we have to ignore air resistance. As the skydiver's downward momentum increases, the earth's upward momentum increases by an identical amount. The total momentum of the earth-skydiver system remains constant.
Would momentum conserved in the larger apple earth system?
Yes, momentum is conserved in the larger apple-Earth system. When the apple falls towards Earth, it gains momentum in the downward direction while Earth gains an equal amount of momentum in the opposite direction. The total momentum of the system remains constant, demonstrating the principle of conservation of momentum.
How is it possible to hit a golf ball on the moon?
It works the same way it does on Earth. The momentum of the club is transferred to the golf ball and it travels. And it isn't slowed down by the friction of air.

The angular momentum of the earth is constant?
More or less. There is a law of conservation of angular momentum, according to which Earth can't gain or lose angular momentum on its own - if for example it loses angular momentum, it has to go somewhere. A meteor who falls into the Earth, or a rocket leaving the Earth can change Earth's angular momentum - but the total angular momentum (e.g., of the system meteor + Earth) is the same, before and after the impact.

Why the earth was revolving?
Conservation of angular momentum.
What has the largest momentum relative to the Earth?
If you jump up, for example, with a momentum of 100 kilogram x meter / second (this can be done by jumping up at a speed of 2 meters/second, if you have a mass of 50 kilograms), then the Earth will recoil by the same amount of momentum - in the opposite direction of course. This follows directly from Conservation of Momentum.
Energy that travels through the earth?
