Momentum Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Momentum?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

p = m o \cdot v

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

p = 35.45kg \cdot 60m/s

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

p = 35.45 \cdot 60

Next Step Evaluate

∴

p = 2127kg*m/s

LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit

∴

p = 2127N*s

Momentum

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity, characterizing an object's tendency to maintain its motion.

Symbol: p

Measurement: MomentumUnit: N*s

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Momentum

Mass

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object or particle, a fundamental property in understanding dynamics and general principles.

Symbol: m_o

Measurement: WeightUnit: kg

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Mass

Velocity

Velocity is a vector quantity (it has both magnitude and direction) and is the rate of change of the position of an object with respect to time.

Symbol: v

Measurement: SpeedUnit: m/s

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Velocity

Other formulas in Laws of Motion category

Go Velocity of Body given Momentum

v = \frac{p}{m o}

Go Initial Momentum

P i = m o \cdot v i

Go Final Momentum

P f = m o \cdot v f

Go Rate of Change of Momentum given Acceleration and Mass

r m = m o \cdot a

How to Evaluate Momentum?

Momentum evaluator uses Momentum = Mass*Velocity to evaluate the Momentum, Momentum formula is defined as the product of an object's mass and velocity, providing a measure of an object's tendency to resist changes in its motion, with higher values indicating a greater tendency to maintain its state of motion. Momentum is denoted by p symbol.

How to evaluate Momentum using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Momentum, enter Mass (m_o) & Velocity (v) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Momentum

What is the formula to find Momentum?

The formula of Momentum is expressed as Momentum = Mass*Velocity. Here is an example- 2127 = 35.45*60.

How to calculate Momentum?

With Mass (m_o) & Velocity (v) we can find Momentum using the formula - Momentum = Mass*Velocity.

Can the Momentum be negative?

Yes, the Momentum, measured in Momentum can be negative.

Which unit is used to measure Momentum?

Momentum is usually measured using the Newton Second[N*s] for Momentum. Kilogram Meter per Second[N*s], Gram Centimeter per Second[N*s], Dyne Hour[N*s] are the few other units in which Momentum can be measured.
