The total momentum of a group of objects is conserved unless an external force acts on the system.
This statement is consistent with the principle of conservation of momentum. In the absence of external forces, the total momentum of a system remains constant. This means that the sum of the momenta of all objects in the system before a collision or interaction will be equal to the sum of the momenta after, provided no external forces are involved.
external forces act on the objects in the system.
In collisions, momentum is conserved. This means that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, unless external forces are involved. The distribution of momentum among the objects may change, but the total momentum remains the same.
In the context of physics, momentum is a conserved quantity. This means that while momentum can be transferred between objects in a system, the total momentum of the system remains constant unless acted upon by an external force.

Momentum is a property of moving objects that is determined by both their mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction, and it is conserved in a closed system, meaning the total momentum of the system remains constant unless acted upon by an external force.
"In classical mechanics, momentum (pl. momenta; SI unit kg m/s, or, equivalently, ·n s) is the product of the mass and velocity of an object (p = mv). In Special_relativity, this quantity is multiplied by the Lorentz factor. Momentum is sometimes referred to as linear momentum to distinguish it from the related subject of angular moentum. Linear momentum is a vector quantity, since it has a direction as well as a magnitude. Angular momentum is a vector quantity because it gains an additional sign flip under an improper rotation. The tpseudovector momentum of any group of objects remains the same unless outside forces act on the objects (law of conservation of momentum)."Rollercoasters use momentum to keep it rolling while gravity accelerates it.Sources:Wikipedia for the quote(BTW I'm 11)
There are two main explanations for force and motion: Newton's laws of motion and the concept of conservation of momentum. Newton's laws describe how forces interact with objects to produce motion, while the conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of a closed system remains constant unless acted upon by an external force.
momentum is caused by inertia. all objects have inertia, which means if they are moving at a certain velocity or are at rest they will continue to move at that velocity or remain at rest unless acted on by a force. Objects of more mass have greater inertia, so the amount of momentum is equal to the product of an objects mass and the magnitude of its velocity.
Objects in motion tend to stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. Objects at rest tend to stay at rest unless acted upon by an outside force.
Yes, momentum is always conserved in a system unless acted upon by an external force. When a cannonball is fired, the momentum of the cannonball system as a whole remains constant because the momentum of the cannonball is equal and opposite to the momentum of the recoil of the cannon.
No, movement is typically accompanied by momentum, which is the product of an object's mass and velocity. Momentum is a property of moving objects that describes their tendency to keep moving in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force.
