What are two ways to increase momentum?
By increase the objects mass and its velocity, Since Impusle (F x t) is the change in momentum and momentum is (Mass x Velocity) Impulse depends on the magnitude of the applied external force and the time that the force acts on the system. By increasing either of those, impulse on a system will be increased, and the system's momentum will change accordingly.
What is one way to increase the momentum of an object?
Momentum is of two kind. One is linear momentum and the other is angular momentum. Linear momentum is defined as the product of the mass and the velocity. Hence a vector quantity. To change the momentum of a given body with its mass constant, its velocity is to be changed. Velocity change could be made by changing its magnitude or direction or both. Angular momentum is the product of moment of inertial and the angular velocity. Same manner, angular momentum is also a vector quantity as angular velocity is a vector quantity. Most of us think that moment of inertia of a body about any prescribed axis is also a vector quantity. It is totally wrong as far as my approach is concerned. Moment of inertia is a scalar quantity. So to change the momentum, some force can be applied by allowing a moving body to collide with. Angular momentum can be changed by applying torque on it. Torque colloquially saying is a turning force. Moment of effective force about an axis is termed as torque.
Anya knows the velocity of an object. What else does she need to know in order to find the objects momentum?
The mass of the object.
Which quantities do you need to know in order to determine the change in an objects momentum?
To determine the change in an object's momentum, you need to know the initial momentum of the object (mass x initial velocity) and the final momentum of the object (mass x final velocity). The change in momentum is equal to the final momentum minus the initial momentum.
Why do you need momentum?
Momentum is defined as the "Mass in Motion". It is a Vector quantity. It depends on two variables (Object Mass and Velocity) . Its direction is same as objects velocity direction. In physics momentum is required to specify the motion of the object . If two bodies of same masses having different velocities have different momentum , in a similar way bodies of different masses having same velocity have different momentum. So , in order to describe the motion of object clearly one of the tool in classical mechanics is momentum

In order to increase the final momentum of a golf ball you could?
To increase the final momentum of a golf ball, you could increase the initial velocity of the ball, increase the mass of the ball, or increase the duration of time that the force is applied to the ball during impact. These factors will contribute to a higher final momentum of the ball.
To have momentum an object must be?
Momentum = m v (mass, velocity). If either one is zero, momentum is zero. So in order to have momentum, an object must have both mass and speed, in the frame of reference.

Does an object have to be heavy in order to have momentum?
No. Even a single electron has momentum.
How can a bowling ball and a volleyball have the same momentum?
Linear momentum, p=mv, is proportional to mass and velocity. Since the bowling ball far outweighs the volleyball, the difference in velocity would have to be determined in order for them to possess the same amount of momentum. If the volleyball is traveling at a high enough speed (orders of magnitude higher), they can both have the same momentum. Either that or fill the volleyball with concrete.
Can a body have kinetic energy without having momentum?
Momentum = (mass) x (speed) Kinetic Energy = 1/2 (mass) x (speed)2 It looks like the only way a body can have zero momentum is to have either zero mass or else zero speed, and if either of those is zero, then that makes the KE also zero as well, too. So the answer to the question is apparently: no.
What is meant by momentum of a body?
Classically momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. In relativistic mechanics, in order to be conserved, the momentum of an object must be defined as p=γm0v where m0 is the invariant mass of the object and γ is the Lorentz factor, given by γ=1/(Sqrt(1-(v/c)2) where v is the speed of the object and c is the speed of light.
Can you have kinetic energy without momentum?
We don't think you can. Here's our reasoning: -- Kinetic energy of an object is [(1/2)(mass)(speed)2]. If kinetic energy is not zero, then mass can't be zero, and speed can't be zero either. -- Momentum of the object is [(mass)(speed)]. If mass isn't zero and speed isn't zero, then momentum isn't zero.
