Question

Explain momentum with example

Answer 1

In physics, momentum is a quantity that can be calculated by multiplying the mass and velocity of the object involved. ... So momentum equals mass times velocity or p = m x v.
Therefore, if any object of any mass is not moving, its momentum is zero because its velocity is zero

example
. A semi-truck full of logs has a large mass and must slow down long before a stop light because even with a small velocity, it has a large momentum and is difficult to stop
