What else can I help you with?
If a compact car and an SUV were both moving at 50 mphwhich would have the greater momentum?
The SUV would have the greater momentum because momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Since an SUV typically has greater mass than a compact car, it would have greater momentum at the same velocity.
Would a large mass moving slowly have more or less momentum than a small mass moving slowly?
A large mass moving slowly would have more momentum than a small mass moving slowly because momentum is a product of mass and velocity. Even if both masses are moving at the same speed, the larger mass would still have more momentum due to its greater mass.
When would the linear momentum of a truck be greater than that of a bus?
Since momentum equals mass times velocity, if the mass of the truck times its velocity is greater than the mass of the bus times the bus' velocity then the momentum of the truck will be greater than the momentum of the bus.
Which has the greater momentum an airplane in a hangar or a car going downhill?
A car going down-hill ! It's moving - the plane in the hangar is static.
Would an oil ship moving at 10kmh have more or less momentum than a car moving at a speed of 100 kmh?
The oil ship would have more momentum than the car because momentum is calculated as mass multiplied by velocity. Even though the car is moving faster, the oil ship's larger mass would result in greater momentum.

Which has greater momentum an old school freight train at rest or a roller skate moving downhill?
The Roller-skate Momentum = (mass) multiplied by (speed) . Anything moving has more momentum than anything that's not moving. The thing that's not moving has zero speed, so it also has zero momentum.
Would a 34 kg ball moving at 8 ms have a greater or lower momentum than the 35 kg ball?
If both balls are moving at the same speed (velocity), the heavier (more massive) will have the greater momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. With identical velocities, the more massive object will have the greater momentum. If a 34 kg ball and a 35 kg ball are both moving at 8 m/s as asked, then the 34 kg ball will have less momentum than the 35 kg ball.

The oil ship would have more momentum than the car because momentum is calculated as mass multiplied by velocity. Even though the car is moving faster, the oil ship's larger mass would result in greater momentum.
Would a larger mass moving slowly have the least momentum?
No, momentum is given by the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so a larger mass moving slowly could still have significant momentum. Momentum depends on both mass and velocity, so even if an object is moving slowly, a large mass can still have considerable momentum.
Is it possible for a train to have less momentum than a squirrel?
Momentum is a measure of the force that a moving object has (due to its movement).It is in direct proportion to both the object's mass and velocity. This means a higher mass, or a higher velocity means a higher momentum.Momentum = mass * velocity (p = mv)The mass of a train is vastly more than that of a squirrel.Therefore the only time that a train would have less momentum is when it was not moving, compared to a squirrel that was moving. As soon as a train moves its momentum will be greater.(You can think of it this way: you could overcome the force of a moving squirrel with your hand, but there is no way you could stop a train this way no matter how slowly it was moving.)
What has greater momentum a car standing still or a bug fyling?
Assuming that both the stationary car and the flying bug can be analyzed against the same reference point, the bug has the greater momentum. Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity. If the car exhibits no motion, then its momentum is zero. Since the bug is flying, it has nonzero velocity and a nonzero momentum, which is greater than the car's momentum.
Have the least momentum?
An object with the least momentum would be one that is either stationary or moving very slowly. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity, so an object with a small mass and low speed would have the least momentum.
Which has a greater momentum a heavy truck at rest or a moving automobile?
The momentum of any object depends on its mass and its speed. If a car and a bike are both moving at the same speed, then the car has more momentum because it has more mass than the bike. If the car and the bike are moving at different speeds, then we need to know the speeds of each, in order to make any determination about their respective momenta.
