Can a person's energy be given off by their personal objects?

Conservation of energy?

  • if two objects of mass1 and mass2 carry are given the same energy 1/m1V1*V1 = 1/2 m2 V2*V2. But if so the momentum is different V1 *V1= (m2/m1) V2*V2 V1 = {(m1/m2)^1/2]*V2. BUt if so do we have eequal momentum? noah J Polakl [email protected]

  • Answer:

    Seems like there may have been some typographical errors in you equations. I'll just answer what I think is your question two masses may carry the same energy, but have different momentum momentum is a function of mass and velocity energy is a function of mass and velocity squared Because the velocity has a much greater influence on energy than on momentum we can have a smaller mass with a larger velocity having the same energy as a larger mass with a smaller velocity However, they will probably not have the same momentum
