Question

Momentum = Mass x _____

• A. Velocity
• B. Acceleration
• C. Displacement
• D. Speed

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Velocity

• Momentum can be defined as “"mass in motion”
• All objects have mass, so if an object is moving then it has momentum .
• Momentum depends upon mass and velocity. In Newtonian mechanics, there is linear momentum and translational momentum and it is the product of mass * velocity .
• It's dimensionally equivalent to impulse, the product of force * time .
• Newton's second law of motion states that change in linear momentum of a body is equal to net impulse acting on it 

       Linear momentum is a vector quantity

      It is also a conserved quantity , if a closed system is not affected by external forces , its total linear momentum cannot       change .
