Homework Statement
Describe how force, momentum, Angular momentum, kinetic and potential energy are linked with respect to mass, acceleration and velocity
Relevant Equations
N/A
Good Evening All,

I have an assignment i am struggling with really hope you can help.

The question reads Describe how force, momentum, Angular momentum, kinetic and potential energy are linked with respect to mass, acceleration and velocity

I know the following
Force – the push or pull upon an object
Momentum – IS the product of the mass of a particle and its velocity
Angular Momentum – Is the amount of rotation of a body which is the product of inertia and its angular velocity
Kinetic Energy - Is a type of energy that an object or particle has by reason of its motion
Potential Energy - Stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various parts of a system

Mass – Is the fundamental property of all matter
Acceleration- Is the rate at which velocity changes with time, in terms of both speed and direction
Velocity - is the rate at which an object changes its position

But i have no idea how they are all linked i am struggling to find any resources clearly explaining it.

How does mass affect the object's kinetic energy? What would, say, doubling the mass have on its kinetic energy?

That's the answer for momentum! Yes?

What about the others? Potential energy is a strange one, I think.
