Question

What is momentum? Don't spam❎❎​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In Newtonian mechanics, linear momentum, translational momentum, or simply momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. It is a vector quantity, possessing a magnitude and a direction. If m is an object's mass and v is its velocity, then the object's momentum is: \mathbf{p} = m \mathbf{v}.

Answer 2

Momentum :

● Defination :

Momentum of a body is defined as the product of mass of the body and the velocity of the body at a particular instant.

● Notation :

Momentum is denoted by "p"

● Formula

p = mv

Where p : momentum of the body

m : mass of the body

v : Velocity of the body

● Units

In SI system of units

Unit of mass : Kg

Unit of velocity : m/s

So unit of Momentum : kg m/s

In CGS system of units

Unit of mass : g

Unit of velocity : cm/s

So unit of Momentum : g cm/s

● Dimensions

[ p ] = [ m ][ v ]

[ p ] = [ M^1 ] [ L^1 T^-1 ]

[ p ] = [ L^1 M^1 T^-1 ]
