In the person + bike system, the brake action would result in internal forces. I don't see how this system could translate.
- venning 9y agoNot sure about the movement-momentum question. Thinking about it, the bicycle would only rotate about the center unless it had something to react against, as was pointed out by others.
- lordvon 9y agowell, momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity. movement implies velocity, and we are not talking about massless things here, so yes, movement implies momentum.
