Insert the information in the form and the calculator will determine the linear momentum.
What is the linear momentum?
Momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. It is a vector quantity and it possess a magnitude and a direction.
How to calculate linear momentum?
To calculate linear momentum you should use the following formula:
p = m * v
where:
p = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity
Why use linear momentum?
Linear momentum is useful in cases where there is a few objects which interact with each other but not with the rest of the world.
