Question

The momentum of an object is determined to be 7.2 × 10-3 kg⋅m/s. Express this quantity as provided or use any equivalent unit. (Note: 1 kg = 1000 g).

Answer 1

Answer:

Momentum, p = 7.2 g-m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

The momentum of an object is $p=7.2\times 10^{-3}\ kg-m/s$

We need to express momentum in any equivalent units. There can be many solutions of this problem. Some of the units of mass are gram, milligram etc. units of length are meters, mm etc.

Since, 1 kg = 1000 gram

So, $p=7.2\times 10^{-3}\times 10^3\ g-m/s$

Therefore, the momentum of the object is 7.2 g-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
