It is important to note that a large force exerted over a short period of time can give the same impulse as a small force exerted over a long period of time.

An object is at rest. Once there is enough force to overcome the inertia of the object the longer the same force acts on the moving object the (lessergreater) its change in momentum.?

Greater. Since force is directly proportional to the change in momentum, the longer a force acts on an object, the greater the change in its momentum.


When a ball is hit with a given force why does contact over a long time impart more speed to the ball?

When the ball is in contact with the bat for a longer time, the force is applied over a longer duration, increasing the impulse and accelerating the ball to a higher speed. This is due to the impulse-momentum theorem which states that the change in momentum of an object is directly proportional to the impulse acting on it.


How does the force and time change the momentum?

The force acting on an object over a period of time will change its momentum. The greater the force applied or the longer it is applied, the greater the change in the object's momentum. This relationship is described by Newton's second law of motion, which states that the change in momentum is equal to the force applied multiplied by the time it is applied for.


The greatest change in momentum will be produced by a large force acting over a(n) period of time.?

The greatest change in momentum will be produced by a large force acting over a short period of time, as described by Newton's second law, F = dp/dt. A large force acting over a longer period of time would also produce a significant change in momentum, but the impact would be distributed over a greater duration.

As the time period of an object's momentum change becomes longer the force needed to cause this change becomes?

As the time period of an object's momentum change becomes longer, the force needed to cause this change decreases. This is because a longer time period allows for the change in momentum to occur more gradually, reducing the peak force required.

Why athelete has to run before taking long jump?

An athelet always runs before jumping to gain momentum.This helps in jumping higher and longer as the rate of change of momentum becomes less and that is why he can jump higher and longer with the same amount of force.


Is it true that the bigger the animal the longer it lives?

Yes that is true that the bigger the animal the longer it lives.


How does momentum apply underwater?

Momentum is a property of matter which causes matter to maintain velocity (speed and direction) unless acted on by unbalanced forced. This applies anywhere, from in space, in the air, on the ground, under ground, or under water. Once a swimmer is moving he/she has momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity is calculated by multiplying mass by velocity. When moving through a fluid, whether it be air or water, a body encounters resistance. This resistance causes momentum to be lost to the fluid around the body, and the body slows down. Normally a constant force such as a waving a fin, or spinning a propellor is needed to counter the loss of momentum. Aero/hydrodynamic shapes will lower resistance allowing the body to retain momentum for much longer, and reduce demand for a compensating source of power.
