Impulse and Momentum

Question 1 • POP Physics 26/27

Which object has no momentum?

Answer
A
a bird flying north
B
a car parked in a garage
C
a satellite orbiting Earth
D
a truck with constant speed

Explanation

Momentum is the product of an object's mass and velocity: p = mv. The parked car has zero velocity, so its momentum is zero; the bird, satellite, and truck are moving and therefore have momentum.
