-- "20 kg" is the child's mass, not her weight.

-- The car's mass doesn't matter.

The child's momentum is (M V) = (20) (10) = 200 kilogram-meters per second.

Which is A child weighing 20 kg sitting inside a car of mass 1000 kg moves with a velocity of 10 m s What is the total momentum of the child and the car together?

Use the momentum equation! ∑M * V = (20 + 1000)(10) = 10,200


How do the mass and velocity of a moving object affects its momentum?

As the velocity decreases, the momentum increases. Mass is the matter inside of something and momentum is how hard it is to stop something. Therefore momentum needs mass to function because without mass there would be no momentum. So think of the sentence above like this: velocity ( a measure of momentum) decreases, the momentum (including mass inside an object) goes up therefore making the mass increase while the velocity decreases.


Define the conservation of momentum?

the principle that the total linear momentum in a closed system is constant and is not affected by processes occurring inside the system.

Which side of the stream is shallower the inside curve or outside?

Since the outside curve has a higher velocity, it has more erosion meaning the inside curve has a slower velocity more deposition causing it to be shallower. The outside curve is deep.


Dimension of angular momentum?

case 1 is mass (m) on weightless length (r) of string at constant velocity (v), so angular momentum L = r * (m * v), SI units are n.m.s. or kg.m^2.s^-1 . case 2 is mass(m) rotating around an axis inside its own mass ie solid sphere rotating about its fixed symmetry axis, angular momentum L = I * w, where I is the mass moment of inertia of the sphere about its fixed symettry axis, and w is the rotation in radians per second, units are kg.m^2 for I, and rad / sec for w


How do you measure instantaneous velocity?

You can transform linear velocity into rotational velocity with a rolling wheel. Rotational velocity can be measured inside a gravity field because of generated centrifugal force. When you suspend your arms freely while rotating, the angle between your body and your arm is a measure for the rotational speed.
