The momentum of a man riding his bicycle downhill can be calculated. the bicycle and the man have a combined mass of 40 kg. the velocity of the bicycle is 10 m/s. calculate the momentum.

yo yo yo its papaguy in the house lol

okay, ima .

um it shows links to uh so kinda microsoft website is that were ima go or no? ?

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
