∙ 13y agoMomentum = (mass) x (speed)
Immediately, we could say the momentum is 0.25 kilogram-mile per second. That's
a perfectly good and technically correct answer, but it would be a lot neater if we
convert it into a consistent system of units ... either English or metric. If we choose
metric, then we have to convert miles-per-second into meters-per-second. No problem.
1 mile = 1,609.344 meters.
Momentum = (0.5 kg) x (0.5 mile/sec) x (1,609.344 meter/mile) = 402.3 kg-m/sec (rounded)
That may sound like a big number, but let's not forget ... our 1.1-pound ball has been
pitched at 1,800 mph !

∙ 13y agoMomentum = (mass) x (speed) (1 x 2) = (2 x 1). Their momenta are equal.
momentum is velocity x mass. Its mass in kilograms is 22.6N/9.8 m/s/s= 2.306kg The velocity is 6.32 miles per second which is 10112 meters per second. The momentum is 2.306 x 10112 which=23318.272 kg meters per second.

Momentum = M V = 10V = 10/M = 10/2= 5 meters per second
The solid ball, will have more mass in comparison to the hollow ball of the same radius. Since, momentum of an object is the product of its mass and velocity, the solid object will have more momentum. Therefore, the force required to stop the solid ball will be much greater than the force required to stop the hollow ball (since, the hollow ball will have less momentum because of its less mass). That's why its difficult to catch a a solid ball as compared to a hollow ball of equal radius.skhatti
Momentum = (mass) x (speed) (1 x 2) = (2 x 1). Their momenta are equal.
The momentum of an object is the product of both the mass and velocity of the object. A train moving at ten miles per hour will have more momentum than a ball moving at ten miles per hour, because the train is much heavier and larger.
The momemtum trasnsferred is only partial, mvcos(angle). If angle is not zero, there is momentum not transfered and thus left to move the incident ball.
The bowling ball would have more momentum because it has more mass than the golf ball. Momentum is calculated as the product of an object's mass and velocity, so a heavier object moving at the same velocity will have more momentum.

A moving ball has more momentum than a still bat because momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity. The ball's mass is likely much smaller than the bat's, but its velocity while in motion gives it a greater momentum than the bat.
If both balls are moving at the same speed (velocity), the heavier (more massive) will have the greater momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. With identical velocities, the more massive object will have the greater momentum. If a 34 kg ball and a 35 kg ball are both moving at 8 m/s as asked, then the 34 kg ball will have less momentum than the 35 kg ball.
Momentum is a function of both mass and speed. The wrecking ball isn't moving very fast, but it is extremely heavy; that is where its momentum comes from.
The momentum of the moving ball before the collision is 5 kg m/s (mass x velocity). The stationary ball has a momentum of 0 kg m/s because it is not moving.
If both balls have the same momentum, then the speed of the golf ball will be faster compared to the speed of the bowling ball. This is because the golf ball has less mass than the bowling ball, so it needs to move at a higher speed to have the same momentum.
No, an elephant cannot have the same momentum as a golf ball. Momentum is dependent on mass and velocity, so even if an elephant and a golf ball were moving at the same speed, the elephant's much larger mass would result in a significantly greater momentum.
When you catch a softball, your hand and the glove move in the same direction that the ball is moving to cushion the impact and reduce the force on your hand. This action conserves momentum, as the momentum of the ball is transferred to your hand and glove system upon contact, leading to a decrease in the ball's momentum and an increase in the momentum of your hand and glove system.
