What is the momentum of a 50-kilogram ice skater gliding across the ice at a speed of 5 m/s? (1 point)

serious [3.7K]

Momentum is a term used to quantify the motion of an object has. It is calculated as the the product of the object's mass and the velocity. It is expressed as:

Momentum = m x v
Momentum = 50 kg x 5 m/s
Momentum = 250 kg m/s

Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.
