What is the momentum of the cart after it has stopped?

Zero, since the velocity is zero.


Suppose you have two toy cars each has a mass of 0.04kg the cars have tape on their bumpers that will cause them to couple together one car is stopped on the track the car what is the momentum of cars?

Since the mass of both cars is .04 kg and the one car is hitting the first car at a velocity of 4 m/s, you would calculate the momentum of the cars by using the Law of Conservation of Momentum (Which states that the total momentum of a moving object remains constant when interacting with another object). To calculate momentum you would find the product of mass and velocity, which the problem states.Equation:The mass x The velocity = The Momentum.04 kg x 4m/s = .16 (kg m/s)Answer: .16 (kg m/s)


Does zero acceleration mean you are stopped?

Yes it does. Sources: 8 grade science textbook wikipedia


What would be the momentum if the mass were halved?

momentum=mass * velocity if velocity remain unchanged, the momentum too will be halved ============================================== But wait! Haven't we all learned that momentum is conserved, and half of it doesn't just suddenly disappear ? If half of the mass of a moving object suddenly disconnects from the object and goes somewhere else, then half of the momentum must go along with that half of the mass, and the total momentum doesn't change. On the other hand, if Tinker-Bell flew by, waved her magic wand and sprinkled ferry dust on the moving object so that half of its mass truly ceased to exist, then in order to keep the total momentum constant, the object's velocity must double! The answer to the question is: No matter what happened to the massive moving object, or how it happened, total momentum doesn't change. It's the same today, tomorrow, and forever. Momentum of the total system is always conserved. If half of the mass is detached, you can't say the rest is the whole system. The whole system is together both halves. If both moving same velocity, momentum is divided. If that half stopped, half of the momentum goes to the force used to stop that.


What is the force exerted by a cather's glove on a 0.15-kg baseball moving at 35ms that is stopped in 0.02 s?

First, multiply mass x velocity, to get the momentum.The momentum in this case is also equal in magnitude to the impulse, which is the change of momentum - since all the momentum gets canceled. Since impulse is also time x force, you can divide the momentum, or impulse, by the time, to get the force. Due to the units used, the answer will of course be in newton.


What is zero velocity also called?

"stopped" or "at rest"


If you are bankrupt can you be stopped from traveling?

yes, obviously, you'd have no money to travel.


When a product falters what does it mean?

It means that it can loose strength or momentum, that the product stopped and started up again


Can a passenger plane stop in mid air?

No it cannot. Even with forward momentum, it could not be said to have stopped.


When a falling object had stopped accelerating it has reached its?

"Terminal Velocity". Usually about 125 mph.


In which sport you will be penalized for traveling?

Netball or Basketball ( if you've dribbled stopped and then continued moving)


What is the difference between mass and momentum?

Mass is a fundamental measure of inertia; it measures the resistance of the body to changes in its motion. Thus, inertia is resistance to motion changes. Whereas, momentum is mass in motion, and, is defined as the mass times the velocity. Examples. A girl (or a baseball) has a certain mass and, therefore, inertia. She can directly feel her body's inertia as the resistance she encounters when she changes her body's momentum, such as when she: * comes to a skater's stop, digging her blades into the ice, and feeling the ice pushing against her feet and legs, as she slows. * stopped at the bottom, laboriously starts her bicycle up a steep hill. * catches a fast baseball, stinging her hands, as the ball's momentum decreases abruptly to zero.
