Question

How can a bullet have the same momentum as a truck? Explain?

Answer 1

p= ma where m is the mass and p is the momentum and a is the acceleration.

Since the acceleration of the bullet is more than the truck, hence the momentum acquired by the bullet is similar to that the truck.

Answer 2

Momentum is equal to mass*velocity so depending on the velocity of the bullet (since the mass is quite small) and the momentum of the truck, they could be equal

Answer 3

@taybay111 did you understand this? :)

Answer 4

Yes Thank you
