No, momentum = mass x velocity. Since the leaves on the ground are not moving v = 0 which means their momentum is also zero. Since the leaf falling is moving and has a mass, it will have a momentum greater than zero.

Do falling leaf have less momentum than falling pinecone?

Yes, a falling leaf has less momentum than a falling pinecone. This is because momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity, and pinecones are typically heavier and denser than leaves, causing them to have greater momentum when falling.


If velocity decreases then does its momentum?

Momentum is the product of mass times velocity. With less velocity, there will be less momentum. (An object's mass will usually not change.)


What happens to momentum when the mass decreases?

When the mass decreases, and all other factors remain constant, the momentum of an object will also decrease since momentum is directly proportional to mass. This is because momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity.


A more massive marble collides with less massive one that is not moving the total momentum after the cllision is equal to?

The total momentum after the collision is equal to the total momentum before the collision in accordance with the law of conservation of momentum. This means that the sum of the momentum of the more massive and less massive marbles before the collision will be equal to the sum of their momentums after the collision.


A loudspeaker makes sounds by vibrating a cardboard cone what happens to the vibrations of the cone as the sound gets quieter?

As the sound gets quieter, the vibrations of the cardboard cone decrease in amplitude and frequency. This results in less movement of the cone, producing a softer sound.

If you drop a suitcase out of a car what happens to the cars momentum?

If you drop a suitcase out of a moving car, the momentum of the car will decrease as there will be less mass, therefore less momentum. :)

Why AM waves transfer less momentum on striking an object?

Less than what? Please clarify.


What makes the car with less momentum does it better so it Requires acceleration?

you would have to be with less momentum better so acceleration isn't required. It would be the flux capacitor. without a doubt.


What is meant when someone says that an athletic team has a lot of momentum or less its momentum?

When a team has a lot of momentum, it means they are performing well and experiencing success, which can build confidence and motivation. When a team loses its momentum, it means they are facing setbacks or challenges that are hindering their performance and progress. Momentum is often used to describe the psychological and emotional state of a team in relation to their performance.

Does a 1-kg ball have less momentum or same momentum as a 10-kg ball?

Momentum is mass x velocity, so it would also depend on each ball's velocity.


What will make an object accelerate faster one with less inertia or more momentum?

If an object has more momentum, it has either a greater mass or a greater velocity. If an object has less inertia, it has less mass. So am object with less inertia will accelerate faster than one with greater momentum because of a greater mass, assuming the same force of acceleration is applied to both. However, if the greater momentum is due to greater velocity, not enough information has been provided to answer the question.
