Question

what is momentum? explain in brief with examples​

Answer 1

Answer:

HI !!!  

Momentum in a simple way is a quantity of motion.It is the product of mass and velocity. It is denoted by p. this quantity is measurable because if an object is moving and has mass, then it has momentum. If an object does not move then it has no momentum. However, in everyday life it has an importance but many people didn’t recognize it. Momentum is just about every activity that involves motion. It is an essential concept of physics. In sports momentum term is commonly used. Like, if a team has the momentum then it is on the move and is going to take some effort to stop. But if a team has lot of momentum then it is really on the move and is going to be hard to stop. This article deals with the concept of momentum with examples and its importance in everyday life.

               Cricket ball is much more heavy than a tennis ball. Suppose we throw a cricket ball and a tennis ball, both with the same speed or velocity. It will be found that more force is required to stop the cricket ball which has more mass and less force is required to stop the tennis ball which has less mass. Therefore, we can say that the force required to stop a moving body is directly proportional to its mass.
