The larger the mass a car effects the velocity in that you require a stronger engine to make it accelerate at the same speed of a lighter car. Having a higher mass, it will take longer for it accelerate as well as for it to decelerate. Two cars that collide that have the same velocity and masses will stop, while if ones mass his higher it will cause greater damage to the smaller one.

What are two things that affect momentum?

The mass and velocity of an object are two factors that affect its momentum. An object with higher mass or greater velocity will have greater momentum.


How velocity affect momentum?

if velocity increases, so does momentum. and vice versa momentum = mass x velocity increasing mass or velocity or both will increase momentum


What affect momentum?

force and acceleration


Two identical cars are travelling along edsa having the same velocity .which of two vehicles would have greater momentum?

Both cars would have the same momentum since momentum depends on both mass and velocity, and in this case, the cars have the same velocity and mass. So, the momentum of both cars would be equal.


Is it possible to have a constant mass and variable velocity?

Yes it happens all the time. Any force will change the velocity but will not affect the mass.


What the 2 factors affect the kinetic energy of an object?

The two factors that affect the kinetic energy of an object are its mass and its velocity. The kinetic energy of an object increases with both mass and velocity.


What will affect kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy is affected by an object's mass and its velocity. The kinetic energy of an object increases as its mass or velocity increases. Conversely, kinetic energy decreases as mass or velocity decreases.

Which two things affect an object's momentum?

An object's momentum is affected by its mass and velocity. The momentum of an object increases as either its mass or velocity increases.


What would be the effect on the orbital velocity of satellite if mass of satellite is double?

Doubling the mass of a satellite would result in no change in its orbital velocity. This is because the orbital velocity of a satellite only depends on the mass of the planet it is orbiting and the radius of its orbit, but not on the satellite's own mass.
