Because when we study physics, we mostly stuffy it in ideal surroundings where there is no friction, but in real life, there is friction, so the speed of the object will decrease as it travels along its trajectory, and since MOMENTUM = Velocity x Mass The momentum will also decrease

All moving objects have?

All moving objects have Momentum.


How All objects have momentum true or false?

False. Not all objects have momentum. Momentum is a property of moving objects and is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity. Objects at rest do not have momentum.


What is momentum a property of?

Momentum is a property of moving objects and is determined by their mass and velocity.


Do only moving objects have momentum?

No, momentum is a property of an object that is in motion. However, even objects at rest can have momentum if they have mass and are affected by an external force.


What opposes motion and causes moving objects to slow down?

concervation of momentum concervation of momentum 2nd Answer: Well, not really, no. Friction causes moving objects to slow.


Is a property of moving objects that depends on mass and velocity?

Momentum depends on mass and velocity.


What is a property of moving objects that depends on mass and velocity?

Momentum


All moving objects have momentum?

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity, and only moving objects have momentum. If an object is stationary, it has zero momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction, and is conserved in a closed system with no external forces acting on it.


When can the momentum of two moving objects be cancelled?

The momentum can be cancelled when the objects are equal and opposite in momentum, 0= p1 + p2, thus p1=- p2. Newton's 3rd law.


A measurement of the motion of something. This is equal to the product of the moving objects's mass times it's velocity?

== == Momentum is the product of the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity (or speed). Momentum is conserved so if a moving object hits a staionary object the total momentum of the two objects after the collision is the same as the momentum of the original moving object.


What do all moving forces have?

Forces don't move. Objects move. All moving objects have momentum as well as kinetic energy.


What property that a moving object has due to its mass and velocity?

The property that a moving object has due to its mass and velocity is momentum. Momentum is calculated as the product of mass and velocity, and it represents how difficult it is to stop a moving object.
