What factors affect momentum?

Back

Mass and velocity.

Front

How is momentum calculated?

Back

Momentum (p) is calculated by multiplying mass (m) by velocity (v): p = mv.

Front

What happens to momentum if the mass of an object increases while its velocity remains constant?

Back

Momentum increases.

Front

What happens to momentum if the velocity of an object decreases while its mass remains constant?

Back

Momentum decreases.
