Momentum is a property of an object, but it is different than a physical or chemical property, such as boiling point or flammability. How is momentum different?

Respuesta :

Well, momentum is defined as mass times acceleration. As far as I know it is independent of temperature, pressure, and chemical reaction. If you've got 1kg of anything moving at 1m/s you've got a momentum of 1kg m/s, regardless. Or at least you do in low speed newtonian classical physics.

The difference between momentum and the physical or chemical property of an object is that; Momentum can change or vary but physical or chemical property doesn't vary.

Physical and chemical properties of object are very unique to that particular object and as such cannot change on their own.

That's why we have things like boiling point of water, freezing point of water, flammability of a particular gas e.t.c

In contrast, momentum is a product of mass and velocity. Now, velocity of the object can change and it means that momentum can vary but physical properties don't vary.
