Question

If Object C and Object D both have the same momentum, which statement is true? Question 11 options: They both have the same velocity They both have the same mass The product of mass times velocity for both objects is the same. Mass and velocity is the same for both.

Answer 1

Answer:

The product of mass times velocity for both objects is the same.

Explanation:

They both have the same velocity. False

They both have the same mass. False: Because two objects of different masses can have the same momentum. The least massive of the two objects will have the greatest kinetic energy.

The product of mass times velocity for both objects is the same. True: Same momentum means that the large mass must have a small velocity; therefore, their product is equal to the small mass times a large velocity.

Mass and velocity is the same for both. False: Based on what was stated for the second option.
