two 2.5 kg balls move away from each other one traveling 3 m/s to the right the other 4 m/s to the left what is the magnitude of
the total momentum of the system? answer in units
1 answer:
Answer:
2.5 kg.m/s
Explanation:
Taking left side as positive while right side direction as negative then
Momentum, p= mv where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of travel
Momentum for ball moving towards right side=mv=2.5*-3=-7.5 kg.m/s
Momentum for the ball moving towards the left side=mv=2.5*4=10 kg.m/s
Total momentum=-7.5 kg.m/s+10 kg.m/s=2.5 kg.m/s
