Before the word "momentum" was decided upon, they used "impetus". Impetus comes from the latin, "petere," to go towards or rush upon. Petere is where the p comes from.
Rather usefully p is also the mirror of q (the reaction to a momentum) which makes it rather memorable.
Oh, honey, you're talking about Newton's second law, but you got the variables mixed up. It's actually F=ma, where force equals mass times acceleration. So, in your equation, p equals mv, p would be momentum, not force. Keep those physics formulas straight, darling!
Momentum, p, is solved by using the momentum equation: p = m*v.
Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity. The formula for momentum is: momentum (p) = mass (m) * velocity (v).
p=mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity :)
linear momentum=product of mass and velocity
Because. The variable M is already used in an equation for mass.
In algebra, the letter "p" is typically used as a variable to represent an unknown number. The value of "p" can vary depending on the context of the equation or problem in which it is used. To determine the specific number represented by "p," you would need to solve the equation or problem in which it appears using algebraic methods such as simplifying, isolating the variable, or substituting known values.

p=mv
No it does not. It represents momentum.
Momentum, p, is solved by using the momentum equation: p = m*v.
The variable expression for "6 times a number p" is written as ( 6p ). This expression represents the product of the constant 6 and the variable ( p ). It can be used to calculate the value when ( p ) is known.
Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity. The formula for momentum is: momentum (p) = mass (m) * velocity (v).
_______________________________________________________ P = m x v P = momentum m= mass v = velocity _______________________________________________________ P t = P 1 x P 2 Total momentum = Momentum 1 X Momentum 2 Total momentum = ( mass x velocity of the first object ) x ( mass x velocity of the second object )
p=mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is velocity :)
What does the variable p stands for
