The balls likely lost momentum due to external forces like friction or air resistance. This lost momentum would have been transferred as heat energy to the surroundings, causing the balls to slow down.
Momentum that can be transferred but not lost is called conserved momentum. This means that the total momentum of a system remains constant before and after a collision or interaction.
Momentum is the product of mass times velocity. The sum of (momentum x velocity) for all parts of a closed system remains constant. For instance, if two balls collide, any momentum lost by one is gained by the other (transferred to the other). Energy is NOT necessarily conserved (kinetic energy, to be more precise - any energy lost will be converted into heat, usually), so momentum is sometimes more useful for certain calculations.
If you return to the same state of motion before you began gaining momentum, then momentum lost will be equal to momentum gained. I mean really, if you start out not moving with a momentum of 0 and end not moving with a momentum of 0, then of course there the bloody same. If you start at 0 and never stop moving, then obviously your not losing momentum so the statement is false.
In the context of physics, momentum is a conserved quantity. This means that while momentum can be transferred between objects in a system, the total momentum of the system remains constant unless acted upon by an external force.
We lost a few games at the beginning of the season, but recently we've gained momentum and have a shot at making the playoffs.
No. Total momentum before and after the collision is the same. Some kinetic energy can be lost - but not momentum.
Momentum that can be transferred but not lost is called conserved momentum. This means that the total momentum of a system remains constant before and after a collision or interaction.
They lost the momentum in their relationship, it is now dull. He lost his momentum for working hard, he was so close. The momentum is conserved when two bumper cars hits each other.
Consevation of momentum applies. The final compond mass must have the same momentum as the net momentum of the two balls before the collision. Remember, momentum is a vector and direction is important. For example if the two balls are moving toward each other with the same momentum, the net momentum is zero because they are moving in opposite directions. So the compound ball will not move. Or, if ball 1 is moving left and has a greater momentum then ball 2 ,moving right, then the compound ball will move left. Its momentum will equal the difference between the two momentums because when you add two vectors in opposite directions you subtract their magnitudes. Mechanical energy (potential + kinetic) is not conserved in this collision because some mechanical energy is lost as heat in the collision.
The past and the past participle of lose is lost.

4,313,000,000 not counting the unsold balls in the stores. Statistics indicate as many balls are lost as are sold in any given week plus or minus one million. I also like pudding!

i think they had to lose and they lost everything.when they get helped then they were brave to fight with them.
The total amount of momentum stays the same. Momentum is neither lost nor gained.
Lost is the past participle of lose.
