Question

The linear momentum is a constant when the mass varies inversely of the velocity. If the velocity is 16 meters per second

Answer 1

Answer:

The weight for an object with a velocity of 12 meters per second is 600 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula of linear momentum : p = mv

where p is the momentum

m = mass

v = velocity

If the velocity is 16 meters per second  and the object weighs 450 kilograms

Substitute the values

$p = 16 \times 450$

We are supposed to find the weight for an object with a velocity of 12 meters per second

So, p = 12m

We are given that The linear momentum is a constant when the mass varies inversely of the velocity.

So,$16 \times 450 = 12 m$

$\frac{16 \times 450}{12}=m$

600 = m

So,the weight for an object with a velocity of 12 meters per second is 600 kilograms
