Given:
Mass = 1.10 x 10^4 kg
Velocity = 25.0 m/s
Determine the momentum.
Formula for momentum:
p = mv
p = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity
Solution:
Substitute the given values of m and v to the formula for momentum.
p = mv
p = (1.10x10^4)(25 m/s)
p = 275,000 kg. m/s
Final answer:
p = 275,000 kg. m/s
