finding momentum

Momentum - Momentum is another vector quantity which has the same direction as that of velocity. Momentum is a property of the body possessed by virtue of its mass and velocity. It is the product of mass of the body and its velocity. Momentum = mass x velocit..

We know that all moving objects possess momentum. Momentum of the body is defined as the product of its mass and the velocit..

Momentum of the body is defined as the product of its mass and the velocit..

Momentum - A cricket ball and a tennis ball are moving with a constant velocity v. You have to apply more force to stop the cricket ball than you have to apply to stop the tennis ball, since the mass of the cricket ball is more than that of the tennis ba..

Consider a car and a bicycle moving at the same velocity. Now, if you could somehow use the same brake system on both vehicles, the bicycle will stop first. Why do think so? Is it because the bicycle is lighter? Yes, it is because the bicycle is lighter. This makes us think of a new property of a b..

We know that all moving objects possess momentum. Momentum of the body is defined as the product of its mass and the velocity. Now let us see how kinetic energy of a body is related to its momentum. Consider a body of mass 'm' moving with a velocity 'v'. Then, mom..

of this particle with respect to the origin O is a vector quantity defined as where is the position vector of the particle with respect to O. As the particle moves relative to O in the direction of its momentum position vector rotates around O. To have angular momentum about O, ..

Angular momentum bears the same relation to linear momentum that torque does to forc..

The angular momentum, which is nothing but moment of linear momentum, can be expressed in terms of the lever arm for momentum..

If no external torque acts upon a system, then the angular momentum of the system remains constan..
