Are momentum and moment of force same ?
Answers
Answer:
no bro! rate of change in momentum cause torque.
Answer:
moment of force and momentum are not same
Moments generally refers to a measure of the effect of some physical quantity around an axis. This measure is computed by the product of the physical quantity and the perpendicular distance from the axis. Moment of force, moment of inertia, and polar moment of inertia are examples found in mechanics for the application of this concept. This concept is further extended to the fields such as statistical theory, where moments of random variables are discussed.
Momentum (Linear momentum) is defined as the product of mass and velocity. It is one of the most important physical quantities of a system, and it is a conserved property in the universe, both at microscopic and macroscopic levels.
Momentum = mass × velocity ↔ P = mv
