momentum – מילון אנגלי-אנגלי
momentum
n.
force of movement; product of the mass of a body of matter multiplied by its velocity (Physics, Mechanics); strength or motivation derived from an initial effort
Momentum
In
classical mechanics,
linear momentum or
translational momentum (
pl. momenta;
SI unit
kg m/s, or equivalently,
Newton second) is the product of the
mass and
velocity of an object. For example, a heavy truck moving rapidly has a large momentum—it takes a large or prolonged force to get the truck up to this speed, and it takes a large or prolonged force to bring it to a stop afterwards. If the truck were lighter, or moving more slowly, then it would have less momentum.

Noun
1. an impelling force or strength; "the car's momentum carried it off the road"
(synonym) impulse
(hypernym) force, forcefulness, strength
2. the product of a body's mass and its velocity; "the momentum of the particles was deduced from meteoritic velocities"
(hypernym) physical property
(hyponym) angular momentum
