If the forces are in the same direction, add them and if they're in opposite directions, subtract them. I'm not sure what to do if they're in directions other than that.
An object at rest. Actually that's the only possible example for a single object. For two objects, you can have objects moving in opposite directions; for example, one may have a momentum of +100 units, and the other, a momentum of -100 units.
Momentum = M V = 100 kg-m/s
Momentum = M V = 100 kg-m/s
Yes. Momentum is based on mass and velocity, not physical size. 1 kg of styrofoam moving at 100 m/s has the same momentum as 1 kg of gold moving at 100 m/s, but the piece of styrofoam will be over 1000 times the size. Additionally, since the formula for momentum is mass times velocity, a 10 kg piece of gold moving at 10 m/s has the same momentum as a 1 kg piece of gold moving at 100 m/s. They both have a momentum of 100 kg-m/s.
The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the momentum of the object would be 100 kg m/s (10 kg x 10 m/s).
We have to assume that both bodies are initially moving along the same straight line in opposite directions, so the collision is "head on". We also have to assume that the collision is "elastic", meaning that none of the original kinetic energy is lost to heat. The final momentum is 20 Kg-m/s in the direction opposite to the original 80 kg-m/s motion.

The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the momentum of the object would be 100 kg m/s (10 kg x 10 m/s).
The momentum of the object can be calculated using the formula p = m * v, where p is the momentum, m is the mass, and v is the velocity. Plugging in the values gives: p = 25 kg * 4 m/s = 100 kgm/s. Therefore, the momentum of the 25kg object going at 4 m/s is 100 kgm/s.
The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the momentum of the 20 kg object traveling at 5 m/s would be 20 kg * 5 m/s = 100 kg*m/s.
Momentum = speed multiplied to mass. M'm = 5 ms^-1 X 20 kg . M'm = 100 kg m s^-1
momentum is mass x velocity. If mass is 1 kg and velocity 1m/s then momentum is 1kgm/s
momentum change = 670.56 kilogram-meter/second
The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the momentum is 1100000 kgm/s and the mass is 100 kg. So, to find the velocity, divide the momentum by the mass: velocity = momentum / mass = 1100000 kgm/s / 100 kg = 11000 m/s.
