Given the statement:

An object with a mass of 3kg has a momentum of 75 kg m/s

Determine its velocity.

Formula for momentum:

p = mv

v = p/m

p = momentum

v = velocity

m = mass

Solution:

In order to determine the velocity of the object, we simply substitute the given values of the mass and momentum to the formula for velocity in terms of momentum.

v = 75 kg m/s / 3 kg

v = 25 m/s

Final answer:
The velocity of the object is 25 m/s.
