Question

What two factors does momentum depend on?

Answer 1

Momentum depends on MASS and VELOCITY.

Answer 2

Answer:

Mass, velocity

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is equal to the product of the mass of an object and the velocity with which it is moving. It is represented by p. Mathematically, it can be written as :

$p=m\times v$

where m is the mass of an object

v is the velocity of object

The SI unit of momentum is kg-m/s. As per the law of conservation of momentum, for an isolated system the total momentum remains constant i.e.

$initial\ momentum=final\ momentum$

Hence, two factors on which momentum of an object depends are its mass and its velocity.
