When an object with a momentum of 80 kg by meters per second collides with an object with a momentum of negative 100 kg times meters per second the total momentum after the collision is?

We have to assume that both bodies are initially moving along the same straight line in opposite directions, so the collision is "head on". We also have to assume that the collision is "elastic", meaning that none of the original kinetic energy is lost to heat. The final momentum is 20 Kg-m/s in the direction opposite to the original 80 kg-m/s motion.


What has greater mass 1mL or 4mL?

our bodies are mainly composed of liquid (water), which is measured in ml's, so 4ml's has greater mass eventhough is not solid, it's still part of the weight added to anything solid or space.

Why does a warm ball bounce higher than a cold ball?

When any thing is heated its volume is increased and as a result of the same its weight is decreased. Weight of a body is the force through which earth pulls it towards it (earth).When a body is bounced its weight resists the bounce. Greater the weight greater will be resistance. Heated bodies due to reduction in weight provide lesser resistance in its bouncing.


What is heavier a ton or a kilogram?

The question is comparing a weight with a mass. Since the weight of a mass depends on where the mass is currently located, the kg of mass could weigh more than 1 ton in some places and less than 1 ton in other places. On Earth, 1 kg of mass weighs 2.205 pounds. That's only 0.0011 ton. On Jupiter, 1 kg of mass weighs 5.85 pounds. That's 0.0029 ton. On the Sun, 1 kg of mass weighs 61.8 pounds. That's 0.031 ton. We can see that it would have to be an awfully massive body for 1 kg of mass to weigh a ton on its surface, but it could be done. Until we start sending spacecraft to bodies like that, in all other places, 1 ton is a greater weight than the weight of 1 kg of mass.

Which body moves faster heavier or lighter?

The answer depends on the force applied to the bodies.


Why is the law of conservation of momentum useful in analyzing the collision between two bodies?

The law of conservation of momentum useful in analyzing the collision between two bodies because there is use to be the collision between the two bodies reason for that is law of conservation of momentum is that the total sum of momentum is equal means constant after the total sum of momentum of two bodies. so if you don't be the collision between two bodies you will not aware of the meaning of momentum.


Damage is more when two bodies collide from opposite directions than when they collide at any other angle.Is it due to the momentum of the objects or their relative velocities?

It is due to the momentum of the two bodies.


What is the relationship between momentum and law of conservation of momentum?

Well... the law of conservation of momentum states that "In a system consisting of bodies on which no outside forces are acting; the total momentum of the system remains the same."


How is momentum conserved after two object collide?

From Newton's third law, when two bodies A and B collide, the force that A exerts on B is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force that B exerts on A. From Newton's second law, this force produces a rate of change of momentum. Both bodies are experienced to the same magnitude in change of momentum but in opposite directions. Net change in momentum is zero. This implies that momentum is conserved.

Why do you need momentum?

Momentum is defined as the "Mass in Motion". It is a Vector quantity. It depends on two variables (Object Mass and Velocity) . Its direction is same as objects velocity direction. In physics momentum is required to specify the motion of the object . If two bodies of same masses having different velocities have different momentum , in a similar way bodies of different masses having same velocity have different momentum. So , in order to describe the motion of object clearly one of the tool in classical mechanics is momentum


Why do large fan blades take LONGER time to stop rotating than shorter blades?

Because of larger momentum. Larger bodies have larger momentum.


How landforms and bodies of water affect typhoons?

Landforms and bodies of water will affect typhoons very differently. A typhoon will typically gain energy and momentum from warm ocean water and will lose energy and momentum over cold water and interactions with land.


When you die do you get heavier or lighter?

Dead bodies begin to lose water almost immediately. Although some weight is gained by oxidation, more is lost to evaporation and gaseous deterioration. The calcified bones remain, but without the marrow and fluids they are only half of their "living" weight.


What factors do you think may cause there to be a difference between the momentum before and the momentum after the collision?

There is a Law of Conservation of Momentum, which states that total momentum is always conserved. In this case, that means that - assuming no additional bodies are involved - the total momentum before the collision will be the same as the total momentum after the collision. It doesn't even matter whether the collision is elastic or not.
