Front

What is the unit for momentum?

Back

kg x m/sec

Front

Define momentum.

Back

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity.

Front

What is the formula for calculating momentum?

Back

Momentum (p) = mass (m) x velocity (v)

Front

If an object has a mass of 10 kg and is moving at a velocity of 3 m/s, what is its momentum?

Back

30 kg*m/s

Front

How does increasing mass affect momentum, assuming velocity is constant?

Back

Increasing mass increases momentum.

Front

How does increasing velocity affect momentum, assuming mass is constant?

Back

Increasing velocity increases momentum.
