If a bowling ball and a golf ball are moving at the same velocity, which one would have more momentum? Why?

Respuesta :

The bowling ball has more momentum because it has more mass than the golf ball.

Please correct me if I'm wrong!! I'd be happy to fix it!! :)

Answer:

A bowling ball

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity that is has both direction and magnitude. It is measured in kg-m/s

[tex]p= mv[/tex]

where, m is the mass and v is the velocity.

The golf ball and bowling ball are moving with the same velocity but they have different mass. Bowling ball is heavier than a golf ball. Thus, the momentum of bowling ball would be more than that of the golf ball.
