I was studying physics so I came across this word "momentum" so I would like to get the real meaning of it and how does it apply in physics

There is a question! We know one of the biggest stars, but you asked about the biggest planet!So far, the biggest planet is Jupiter.Simply because we have yet to see bigger planets in the surrounding galaxys.....because we dont have big enough telescopes!

Momentum is a type of force. When a car stops suddenly, you jerk forward, yeah?! Thats because you have momentum.

The Physics equation for momentum states that it is Force in newtons multiplyed by time, the more force you have, or the more time, the more momentum you will have!

Momentum is a corner stone concept in Physics. It is a conserved quantity. That is, within a closed system of interacting objects, the total momentum of that system does not change value. This allows one to calculate and predict the outcomes when objects bounce into one another. Or, by knowing the outcome of a collision, one can reason what was the initial state of the system.

All i know about the biggest planet is the biggest planet of the solar system which is Jupiter....

Hi Koos, my name is Tom.....The biggest planet Is Jupiter. Momentum is the force by which all object keep moving. One of Newton's laws explains it better than I can, but it has to due with mass and energy.....an object in motion tends to stay in motion. It kept moving until friction slows it down or it meets an immovable object.

I only can tell you the biggest planet is Jupiter. If the word "momentum" means fast, then the "momentum" planet which is the Mercury.
