The boy's momentum is 160 kg*m/s north.
The formula of momentum is p = mv, where p is momentum.
p = 40 kg * 4m/s north
p =160 kg*m/s north<span>Thank you for posting your question. I hope you found what you were after. Please feel free to ask me more.</span>
Answer:
96046 Ns.
Explanation:
We shall represent velocity in vector form considering east direction as + ve x axis and north as + y direction.
40 km/h in the east
V₁ = 40 i
V₂ = 50j
momentum p₁ = mV₁
= 1500 X 40 i
= 60000 i
Momentum p₂ = mV₂
= 1500 X 50j
= 75000 j
Change in momentum
p₂ - p₁
75000j - 60000i
Magnitude of change
= 
= 96046 Ns.
Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The balloon travels in the opposite direction as the air escaping from it. So when gas is released from the balloon it pushes against the outside air and the outside air pushes back. As a result of this the rocket is propelled forward by the opposing force. This opposing force is thrust.
Hope this helps!
