Physics 30 – Assignment 1 ASSIGNMENT 1 Part One: Momentum and Newton’s Second Law 1. Identify and explain if one of the objects in each of these pairs has a greater value for the magnitude of ... its momentum than the other. (No calculations required). a. A 900.0 kg truck travelling at 60 km/h, or a 500.0 kg car travelling at 60 km/h The truck with higher mass will have higher momentum because both vehicales have the same velocity. b. A 15.0 kg object travelling to the right at 5.0 m/s, or a 15.0 kg object travelling to the left at 5.0 m/s The momentum of the objects are relatively the same because the momentum is not changed by direction. c. A 900 kg truck at rest, or a 500 kg car at rest Both trucks are in the rest position which is 0. Which has no momentum [Show More]
