What else can I help you with?
Do two objects that have the same mass and velocity always have the same momentum?
Yes, if two objects have the same mass and velocity, they will always have the same momentum. Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and velocity, so if these values are the same for both objects, then their momentum will also be the same.
2 objects with same velocity have same momentum if they have the same?
mass. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so if two objects have the same velocity and mass, then their momentum will be the same.
Does every transfer decrease momentum?
Not necessarily. If the transfer is between two objects with equal mass and opposite velocities, the momentum will remain the same. Momentum is a vector quantity that depends on both the mass and velocity of an object.
How could two objects travailing at the same speed have different amounts of momentum?
Momentum is a vector and so obeys the laws of vector addition. These imply that the momentum of two two objects will be the sum of the individual momentum only if the objects are moving in the same direction.
Can objects with different masses have the same momentum?
Yes. Momentum is rigidly defined as the product of mass and velocity. Velocity describes both a speed and a direction. So let's take two metal balls. One weighs 10 kilograms (kg) and the other weighs 20kg. We roll the 10kg ball along a flat and level floor at 2 meters per second (m/s) and the 20 kg ball at 1 m/s. 10*2 = 20*1 so they have the same momentum. If you have a friend roll the balls for you to catch some distance away, making sure after a few tests to roll the lighter ball at twice the speed of the heavier ball, you will find that it "feels" as if both balls hit your hand with about the same force. Your hand is stopping each ball. That is a force which is defined as the rate of change in momentum. Stopping each ball will cause your muscles to exert about the same strength to stop each ball, even though one is moving at double the speed of the other. You will then feel that two objects can indeed travel at different speeds and yet have the same momentum. JGS

mass. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so if two objects have the same velocity and mass, then their momentum will be the same.
Is it possible that have the different mass always have the same momentum?
Not always, but they do have the same momentum when the product of the mass and speed of each is the same number. So a larger mass can have the same momentum as a smaller mass if it's moving faster. Simple example: A rifle bullet can knock a large animal down.

Do objects of the same size always have the same mass?
not always it depends
If two objects have the same velocity do they have the same momentum?
No, because momentum depends on velocity and mass so they may have the same velocity but if they have different masses then they will have different momenta. (momenta is the plural form of momentum.)

A car and a train are traveling with the same velocitydo the two objects have the same momentum?
No, the car and the train would not have the same momentum. Momentum is mass times velocity, so even if they are traveling at the same speed, the train would typically have a much larger mass than the car, meaning that their momentums would be different.
How can it be possible for two objects with different velocities to have the same momentum?
Two objects with different velocities can have the same momentum if one object has a greater mass and a lower velocity while the other object has a lower mass and a greater velocity. Because momentum is the product of mass and velocity, if the product of mass and velocity for each object is the same, their momenta will be equal.
An objects momentum is the same direction as it's what?
An object's momentum is in the same direction as its velocity. Momentum is a vector quantity defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so it carries the same direction as the object's motion.
Do Two objects of different masses freely fall with same momentum?
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.
