(Physics) Momentum

Cards (20)

  • In collisions where objects have different masses or velocities, their momenta can change but still remain equal to conserve momentum.
  • When two objects collide, their momenta change due to the transfer of energy between them.
  • Momentum is conserved when there are no external forces acting on a system, meaning that it remains constant unless acted upon by an outside force.
  • The momentum of an object can be calculated using the formula p = mv, where p represents momentum, m represents mass, and v represents velocity.
  • The momentum of an object is the product of its mass and velocity.
  • Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.
  • Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.
  • Conservation of momentum is a fundamental principle in physics that applies to a wide range of scenarios, from particle interactions to macroscopic collisions.
  • Conservation of momentum is a fundamental principle in physics that applies to a wide range of scenarios, from particle interactions to macroscopic collisions.
  • In a collision between two objects, momentum can be transferred from one object to another, but the total momentum of the system remains constant.
  • Momentum is conserved in a closed system, meaning the total momentum before an event is equal to the total momentum after the event.
  • The total momentum of an isolated system remains constant during any interaction within the system.
  • Momentum is conserved when there are no external forces acting on the system.
  • When two objects with unequal mass collide head-on at low speeds, they both experience changes in velocity due to conservation of momentum.
  • The total momentum of an isolated system remains constant during any interaction within it.
  • The total momentum of a closed system will always be zero if all internal interactions cancel out.
  • Momentum is conserved when there are no external forces acting on a closed system.
  • If one object has more mass than another, its velocity must decrease more during a collision to maintain conservation of momentum.
  • If one object has more mass than another, its velocity will be lower at impact to maintain conservation of momentum.
  • If the total momentum of all particles in a closed system is zero at one instant, then it will always be zero as long as there are no external forces acting on the system.
