Question

Define momentum in term of mass and velocity​

Answer 1

Answer:

Momentum: It is the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its Mass and Velocity.

Explanation:

Definition of momentum :

Momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its Mass and Velocity.

• Momentum is denoted by p
• Formula for momentum is
• $p = mass\times velocity$

• Its unit is kg-m/s.

For example:

A bowling ball of large mass moving very slowly can have the same momentum as a cricket ball of small mass that is thrown with a very high velocity
