momentum=mass * velocity
if velocity remain unchanged, the momentum too will be halved
==============================================
But wait! Haven't we all learned that momentum is conserved, and half of it
doesn't just suddenly disappear ?
If half of the mass of a moving object suddenly disconnects from the object and
goes somewhere else, then half of the momentum must go along with that half
of the mass, and the total momentum doesn't change.
On the other hand, if Tinker-Bell flew by, waved her magic wand and sprinkled
ferry dust on the moving object so that half of its mass truly ceased to exist,
then in order to keep the total momentum constant, the object's velocity must
double!
The answer to the question is: No matter what happened to the massive
moving object, or how it happened, total momentum doesn't change. It's
the same today, tomorrow, and forever.
Momentum of the total system is always conserved. If half of the mass is detached, you can't say the rest is the whole system. The whole system is together both halves. If both moving same velocity, momentum is divided. If that half stopped, half of the momentum goes to the force used to stop that.
What else can I help you with?
What will happen to the momentum of an object if the mass of an object is cut in half?
If the mass of an object is cut in half, the momentum of the object will also be halved. This is because momentum is directly proportional to mass, so a decrease in mass will result in a proportional decrease in momentum.
When the mass of a moving object is doubled and its speed remains the same its momentum?
When the mass of a moving object is doubled and its speed remains the same, its momentum also doubles. Momentum is directly proportional to mass, so doubling the mass will result in a doubling of the momentum regardless of the speed.
What would be the momentum of a passenger bus if its velocity were doubled?
a) doubled b) tripled c) doubled (assuming the engine is used to bring it back to the same speed) d) quadrupled e) halved
What will happen to the velocity of an object that increases its mass from 5 kg to 10 kg and maintains a momentum of 10 kgm slash s?
The velocity of the object will decrease proportionally to its increased mass in order to maintain its momentum of 10 kgm/s. The velocity will be halved, as the momentum needs to stay constant even when the mass doubles.
What would you expect to have the least momentum?
An object with a small mass and low velocity would have the least momentum. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity, so a combination of low mass and low velocity would result in the least momentum.
What would be its momentum if its mass were halved?

What will happen to the momentum of an object if the mass of an object is cut in half?
If the mass of an object is cut in half, the momentum of the object will also be halved. This is because momentum is directly proportional to mass, so a decrease in mass will result in a proportional decrease in momentum.

When the mass of a moving object is doubled and its speed remains the same, its momentum also doubles. Momentum is directly proportional to mass, so doubling the mass will result in a doubling of the momentum regardless of the speed.
What would be the acceleration if the mass were halved?
If the mass were halved, the acceleration would be doubled, assuming the force applied remains constant. According to Newton's second law (F = m * a), when mass is halved, acceleration is inversely proportional and would increase.

a) doubled b) tripled c) doubled (assuming the engine is used to bring it back to the same speed) d) quadrupled e) halved

What happen gravitation force of attraction between two object if mass of one of the object is halved?
If the mass of one of the objects is halved, the gravitational force of attraction between the two objects will also be halved. This is because the force of gravity is directly proportional to the masses of the objects involved.
Would a larger mass moving slowly have the least momentum?
No, momentum is given by the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so a larger mass moving slowly could still have significant momentum. Momentum depends on both mass and velocity, so even if an object is moving slowly, a large mass can still have considerable momentum.
What would the formula be for mass and momentum?
The formula for mass is given as ( m = \frac{F}{a} ), where ( m ) is mass, ( F ) is force, and ( a ) is acceleration. The formula for momentum is ( p = m \times v ), where ( p ) is momentum, ( m ) is mass, and ( v ) is velocity.
If a compact car and an SUV were both moving at 50 mph which would have the greater momentum?
Since momentum is mass x velocity, the vehicle with the greater mass would have more momentum in this case.
What would be the momentum of a passenger bus if its mass were doubled by adding more passenger and a great load?
The momentum of the bus would double if its mass is doubled while keeping its velocity constant. Momentum is directly proportional to mass, so doubling the mass would result in a doubling of momentum as long as the velocity remains the same.
