Question

What is the difference between mass and momentum? Explain in brief.​

Answer 1

We can define mass as the inherent property of matter. It is the measure of the inertia of a body, mass tells us how much matter there is in a body, we can measure the mass of a body on earth by measuring the force of gravity acting on it, the SI unit of mass is kilogram (kg).

Remember mass is not the same as weight, even though we measure the mass of a body by measuring its weight, a body with the same mass weighs differently on the moon than it weighs here on earth, mass is one property of matter that doesn’t change easily.

Momentum is defined as the quantity of motion of the body. It is measured by mass×velocity, as momentum depends upon velocity, and it depends on the direction of the motion of the body as well. Momentum is a vector quantity since velocity is vector while mass is scalar.

Momentum = Mass X Velocity

p = mv
