Sure, if either of the following conditions is true:
-- The smaller mass started dropping before the larger mass did. As long as
(MsmallVsmall) is equal or greater than (MbigVbig), the smaller mass has equal
or more momentum than the larger one has. But of course, the momentum
of the larger mass catches up as its speed grows.
-- The smaller mass and the larger mass were dropped at exactly the same time,
but on different planets. Then, if the smaller one was dropped in a place where
gravitation is greater, and the greater mass was dropped in a place where
gravitation is less, it's quite possible for the smaller mass to have more
momentum than the larger mass has, at least for a while.
If the acceleration of gravity on the larger planet is at least (larger mass x acceleration of gravity on the smaller planet/smaller mass) or more, then the smaller mass has more momentum than the larger mass has
forever, or as long as they're both freely falling.
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.
No.....because we need both mass and velocity to find the momentum if velocity is same that is 9.8m/s that is of free falling bodies.........mass will effect the final result.
The momentum of a falling leaf is determined by its mass and velocity as it moves downward due to gravity. The momentum of a falling pinecone is also dependent on its mass and velocity as it falls under gravity, potentially differing from that of a leaf due to the pinecone's shape and denser structure.
When a falling ball hits the ground, it experiences a sudden change in momentum and kinetic energy. The impact causes the ball to bounce back up due to the conservation of energy and momentum.
The greatest velocity a falling object reaches is called the terminal velocity.For an object falling at the terminal velocity, the weight force of the objectis balanced by the drag force and buoyant force on the object.W + FDRAG + FBUOYANT = FNET = 0.0

Momentum is conserved in a closed system, so when a falling ball strikes the Earth, the Earth will experience an equal and opposite force from the ball, resulting in a transfer of momentum. The total momentum of the system (ball and Earth) remains the same before and after the collision.
The momentum of an object can be calculated using the equation p = m * v, where p is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity. Since the object is falling, its velocity is increasing due to gravity. Without knowing the velocity of the object, we cannot determine its momentum at a specific time. The given time of 5 seconds does not provide enough information to calculate the velocity or momentum of the object.
Impulse = |change in momentum| Initial momentum = MV1 down Final momentum = MV2 up Missing momentum = impulse = M ( V1 - V2 )
No, a bird and a bowling ball cannot have the same momentum because momentum depends on both an object's mass and its velocity. Since a bowling ball has much more mass than a bird, even if they were moving at the same speed, their momenta would still be different.
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.
The force involved is the electromagnetic force either way. Physics doesn't much care how pleasant the experience is for you.
Falling!
