Define momentum in term of mass and velocity​

Physics
1 answer:
KengaRu [80]3 years ago
5 0

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

Velocity is the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph.<br> A.) True<br> B.)False<br> (apex)
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Velocity vs. time graph shows the acceleration as a slope whereas displacement vs. time graph shows the velocity as a slope. So, the given statement is false.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

To understand the acceleration graphically, consider the x axis of the graph as the run and the y axis as the velocity rise. Now, as we all know that,

            \text {Acceleration}=\frac{\text {Change in velocity }}{\text {Time interval}}

We can estimate this through the graph. let's draw the motion of an object with time if it's velocity is changing in every second by 4 m/s. Now if we draw this on graph, we will see that there is a slope between the two corresponding values of time and velocity. This slope defines the acceleration for the object with time.

Now, in the same way, if we draw a distance and time graph respective to the y and x axis; we'll get a slope which defines the velocity of the object i.e. change in distance with time.

Hence, with a velocity vs time graph, we get the slope for acceleration whereas with the distance and time graph, we get the slope for velocity. So both the cases, we see there is no velocity slope on an acceleration and time graph. Hence the statement is false.

Why might we expect venus and earth to be similar?
mina [271]
They have similar distances from the sun therefore receive similar amounts of solar energy but Venus has no atmosphere to protect it so greater variation in temp.
Both are rock planets unlike those further away from the sun which, because of their distance receive less solor energy are cold, are ice planets
