Calculation Formula

Momentum (p) = Mass (m) × Velocity (v)

Where:
p = Momentum (kg·m/s)
m = Mass (kg)
v = Velocity (m/s)

Falling Momentum Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Falling Momentum Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use

  1. Enter the mass of the object in kilograms (kg) in the "Mass" field.
  2. Enter the velocity of the object in meters per second (m/s) in the "Velocity" field.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the momentum.
  4. The result will be displayed in the "Momentum" field.

Working Principle

Momentum is a measurement involving mass in motion, capturing both the amount of mass involved and the speed at which the mass is moving. The formula used in this calculator is:

p = m × v

Where:

  • p is the momentum
  • m is the mass
  • v is the velocity

Example

If an object with a mass of 5 kg is moving at a velocity of 10 m/s, its momentum would be:

p = 5 kg × 10 m/s = 50 kg·m/s
