Plz me is there ever a situation where an ant will have more momentum than an elephant? explain why or why not? question 2 options: yes, if the elephant is standing still. yes, if the ant is standing still. no, an ant can't move fast enough. no, an elephant has too much mass.

An ant will have higher momentum than elephant only if elephant is standing still.

Explanation:

The word momentum is defined as product of object’s mass  and velocity  buy which it moves and the momentum can be denoted by vector quantity .

Whose product of mass and the velocity is more; its momentum will be more.

If elephant stands still, means its velocity is equal to zero, then the product of its mass and velocity will be zero. Hence, it will have 0 momentum.

Since, the mass of ant is insignificantly small but have velocity for moving. So, the ant have small momentum but somewhat greater than zero.

Therefore, the ant will have higher momentum than elephant only if elephant stands still.

If an ant will stand still it have zero velocity, so the momentum will be equal to zero. Hence, this option is also incorrect.

The option “The elephant has much high mass” is incorrect because having high mass but zero velocity will result in no momentum.

Thus, an ant will have higher momentum than elephant only if elephant is standing still.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
