What else can I help you with?
If the velocity is constant does that mean that there is no impulse?
Not necessarily. Impulse Fdt=change in momentum which could be written as mdv (constant mass, velocity changing) or dmv (changing mass, constant velocity - the so-called conveyor belt problem. Imagine a hopper filled with (say) coal is feeding the coal on to a conveyor belt. The mass of the belt increases with time, so a force has to be applied to it to keep it moving at constant velocity.
If the velocity is constant does that mean that there is no change in momentum?
No, a constant velocity means that there is no change in speed but there can still be a change in direction, which would lead to a change in momentum since momentum is a vector quantity that considers both speed and direction.
Formula for momentum?
Total change in momentum = zero (law of conservation of momentum). Also, a change in momentum is equal to the impulse, which is force x time . A formula is: d/dt (Mv) = F, which is one of Newton's laws of motion.
What does momentum mean in science?
Momentum of a body is got by the product of its mass and velocity. If the concerned body is at rest then momentum is ZERO. If m is the mass and v is the velocity then mv is the momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity. Its unit is kg m/s
Do acceleration and momentum mean the same thing?
No, acceleration and momentum are not the same. Acceleration refers to the rate of change of an object's velocity, while momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Acceleration measures how quickly an object's velocity is changing, while momentum is a property that depends on both an object's mass and how fast it is moving.

How do you find the momentum with no velocity?
It is unclear what you mean. If you mean that you want to find momentum but do not have a value for velocity then it depends on what physical system you are using. If you want to find the momentum of an object with a velocity equal to zero then the momentum is zero. Answer2. You can find the momentum from its the integral of its force impulse fdt = d(mv). The momentum is mv= integral of fdt.

No, a constant velocity means that there is no change in speed but there can still be a change in direction, which would lead to a change in momentum since momentum is a vector quantity that considers both speed and direction.
What does momentum of an object mean?
Momentum is the product of mass x velocity.

Distinguish between impulse and momentum which is force x time and which is inertia in motion?
Impulse is equal to the change in momentum: definition of impulse is Force x time. When a force is applied to an object for a certain amount of time its momentum (mv) will increase because it is accelerating due to the force on it. Force x time = the change in MV (change in momentum) This is just a restatement of Newtons law F=MA it is actually derived directly from F=MA

What are the units you use for measuring a moment?
If you mean a brief moment of time: seconds.If you mean momentum: this is mass x velocity, so the units are kg x meters / secondsIf you mean a brief moment of time: seconds.If you mean momentum: this is mass x velocity, so the units are kg x meters / secondsIf you mean a brief moment of time: seconds.If you mean momentum: this is mass x velocity, so the units are kg x meters / secondsIf you mean a brief moment of time: seconds.If you mean momentum: this is mass x velocity, so the units are kg x meters / seconds
What does MV mean in terms of physics?
In terms of physics, MV typically refers to momentum, which is the product of an object's mass (m) and velocity (v). Momentum is a vector quantity that represents the motion of an object. The greater the mass or velocity of an object, the greater its momentum.
What does it mean to say momentum is directly proportional to mass and velocity?
Being proportional means that if you change one by a given factor, the other will change by that factor as well. Being proprtional to both means it is proportional to their product, i.e. momentum equals mass times velocity, p = mv.
What does change in momentum mean?
It means that the momentum increases, decreases, or simply changes its direction. The latter is because momentum is a vector quantity (that is, the direction is relevant). Momentum is defined as the product of velocity and mass.
