Energy. Two objects with the same momentum can have different kinetic energy.

Example - A 1 oz projectile at 1000 ft/s and a 10 oz projectile at 100 ft/s have the same momentum. The lighter projectile has 10 times as much kinetic energy as the heavy projectile.

Example - A 1 oz projectile at 1000 ft/s and a 100 oz projectile at 100 ft/s have the same kinetic energy. The heavier projectile has 10 times as much momentum as the lighter projectile.

Momentum = m*v. Energy = (m*v*v)/2.

What factors does the angular momentum depend upon?

Angular momentum depends on the mass of an object and its rotational speed. The greater the mass or speed, the greater the angular momentum.


What quantities does angular momentum depend upon?

mass, velocity, and radius.


What does a moving object have that depends on it's mass and velocity called?

Both momentum and kinetic energy depend on mass and velocity.


Does a 1-kg ball have less momentum or same momentum as a 10-kg ball?

Momentum is mass x velocity, so it would also depend on each ball's velocity.


What is needed for an object to have large momentum?

That would depend on what you consider "large".The size of an object's momentum = (its mass) x (its speed).So, more mass and more speed result in more momentum.


Why will momentum change?

Momentum will change if there is a force acting on an object. This change in momentum can occur due to accelerations, decelerations, changes in direction, or interactions with other objects. The magnitude and direction of the momentum change depend on the strength and direction of the force applied.


What are 2 factor does momentum depend on?

Momentum depends on an object's mass and velocity. The momentum of an object is the product of its mass and velocity, meaning that a heavier object moving at a faster speed will have a greater momentum.


Suppose an impulse is applied to an object. What can you assume?

If an impulse is applied to an object, it can assumed that there will be a change in the object's momentum. This change in momentum will depend on the magnitude and direction of the impulse applied.


What is the average momentum of a g6?

The average momentum of a g6 would depend on its mass and velocity. Momentum is calculated as the product of mass and velocity, so without specific values for these parameters, the average momentum cannot be determined.


What is the equation in solving for momentum?

That would probably depend on the specific situation; there are several equations that involve momentum. Two important equations are: 1) Conservation of momentum: m2 = m1 (i.e., total momentum after some event, such as an impact, is the same as total momentum before the event) 2) The definition of momentum: p = mv (momentum, which is usually written as "p", is mass times velocity) cw: Impulse (Force X time) is equal to the change in momentum.
