Question

Why momentum is the product of mass and velocity?​

Answer 1

Answer:

hope this helps!

Explanation:

momentum is a physical quantity representing quantity of motion produced in a body. since the momenta of bodies depend on their mass and velocity, they are represented as a product of the mass and velocity of objects.

I.e the mass of an object and the velocity is directly proportional to the magnitude of momentum and so momentum(p) can be expressed ideally as

p=mv(where 'm' is the unit mass and 'V' is the velocity of the object).

*note this doesnt have any derivation as such*

cheers!

Answer 2

Answer:

your answer is:Momentum is directly proportional to the object's mass and also its velocity. Thus the greater an object's mass or the greater its velocity, the greater its momentum. Momentum p is a vector having the same direction as the velocity v.
