Back

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and its velocity.

Front

What is the formula for calculating momentum?

Back

p = m * v (where p is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity)

Front

Is momentum a scalar or vector quantity?

Back

Momentum is a vector quantity.

Front

What happens to momentum if the mass of an object increases while its velocity remains constant?

Back

The momentum increases.

Front

What is the principle of conservation of momentum?

Back

In a closed system, the total momentum before an event is equal to the total momentum after the event.
