Question

As a moving object's velocity decreases, its momentum decreases.

Please select the best answer from the choices provided
T
F

Answer 1

From the choices provided, the better answer is 'T'. The other one does not apply.

Answer 2

Explanation :

The momentum of an object is defined as the product of its mass and the velocity with which it is moving. It is denoted as p.

Mathematically, it is written as :

`p=mv`

m is the mass of an object

v is the velocity

So, it is clear that the momentum of an object is directly proportional to its velocity.

The statement "as a moving object's velocity decreases, its momentum decreases" is absolutely true.
