Not illustrated. 1864 Excerpt: ...a body is 19, its velocity 60, what is its momentum? 9. The weight of a body is 60, and its velocity 19, what is its momentum? 10. A stone weighing 16 oz. moves with a velocity of 36 feet per second, with what force will it strike any opposing object? We have seen in the above examples that the momentum of a body is the product of the mass and velocity. To obtain the velocity: Divide the momentum by the mass and the quotient will be the velocity. To obtain the weight: Divide the momentum by the velocity and the quotient will be the mass, from which the weight is at once known. 11. The momentum of a body is 240, and its weight 6, what is its velocity? 240 An, .----= 40 velocity. 6' 12. The momentum of a body is G8, and its velocity 4, what is the weight? no--= 17 mass, and.-.weight s 171bs. according to our standard or unit. 13. The momentum of a steam-engine is 960, its velocity 25, required its weight? 14. The momentum of a stone is 260, its weight 12, what is its velocity? 15. A cannon-ball moves at the rate of 1000 feet a second, and has a momentum of 2750, what is its weight? 16. The momentum of a body is 690, the weight 23, what is the velocity? "When two bodies moving in opposite directions come into collision, they each lose an equal quantity of their momenta. We have seen in the previous examples that momentum means the force necessary to destroy motion. Let us now consider what would be the effect of bodies coming into collision by moving in opposite directions. Suppose two bodies, equal in weight, moving with equal velocities in opposite directions, come into contact, one would destroy the force of the other, and both bodies after impact would be brought to a state of rest, for equal masses having the same velocities must produce equal forces. ...
