What else can I help you with?
2 objects with same velocity have same momentum if they have the same?
mass. Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so if two objects have the same velocity and mass, then their momentum will be the same.
Do two objects that have the same mass and velocity always have the same momentum?
Yes, if two objects have the same mass and velocity, they will always have the same momentum. Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and velocity, so if these values are the same for both objects, then their momentum will also be the same.
Is it true two objects with the same mass will always have the same momentum?
No, two objects with the same mass will not always have the same momentum. Momentum is a vector quantity that depends on both mass and velocity. If the objects are moving at different speeds, they will have different momenta even if they have the same mass.
How can it be possible for two objects with different velocities to have the same momentum?
Two objects with different velocities can have the same momentum if one object has a greater mass and a lower velocity while the other object has a lower mass and a greater velocity. Because momentum is the product of mass and velocity, if the product of mass and velocity for each object is the same, their momenta will be equal.
What are the two factors that determine an objects momentum?
An object's momentum is determined by its mass and velocity. The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity.
Do Two objects of different masses freely fall with same momentum?
No.....because we need both mass and velocity to find the momentum if velocity is same that is 9.8m/s that is of free falling bodies.........mass will effect the final result.
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.
Can objects with different masses have the same momentum?
Yes. Momentum is rigidly defined as the product of mass and velocity. Velocity describes both a speed and a direction. So let's take two metal balls. One weighs 10 kilograms (kg) and the other weighs 20kg. We roll the 10kg ball along a flat and level floor at 2 meters per second (m/s) and the 20 kg ball at 1 m/s. 10*2 = 20*1 so they have the same momentum. If you have a friend roll the balls for you to catch some distance away, making sure after a few tests to roll the lighter ball at twice the speed of the heavier ball, you will find that it "feels" as if both balls hit your hand with about the same force. Your hand is stopping each ball. That is a force which is defined as the rate of change in momentum. Stopping each ball will cause your muscles to exert about the same strength to stop each ball, even though one is moving at double the speed of the other. You will then feel that two objects can indeed travel at different speeds and yet have the same momentum. JGS
If two objects have the same momentum do their magnitudes necessarily have the same directions?
First of all ... I think you're talking about either the magnitude of the momentum, or the magnitudeof the velocity, not the magnitude of the objects.Now ... you're obviously skating around the subject of vectors here, recognizing that both thevelocity and the momentum are vector quantities.If, as you say, the two objects have " ... the same momentum ... ", then you're saying that theirmomentum vectors are equal. If so, then you'd have to say that yes, since the momentum vectorsare equal, the momentum vectors and the velocity vectors must all have the same direction.But if the two momenta only have equal magnitudes, then they ... and the velocities ... can be inany two directions, not necessarily related.
How could two objects travailing at the same speed have different amounts of momentum?
Momentum is a vector and so obeys the laws of vector addition. These imply that the momentum of two two objects will be the sum of the individual momentum only if the objects are moving in the same direction.
What happens to the total momentum of two objects in a system before and after interactions?
The total momentum before the collision is the same as the total momentum after the collision. This is known as "conservation of momentum".
What are the 2 factors that effect an objects momentum?
The two factors that affect an object's momentum are its mass and its velocity. Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and its velocity, so changes in either of these factors will impact the momentum of the object.
