Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. ... Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour........?

Speed is the rate at which someone or something is able to move or operate. Moreover, the SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour.

A small object with momentum 7.0 kg∙m/s approaches head-on a large object at rest. The small object bounces straight back with a

EastWind [94]

Answer:

The magnitude of the large object's momentum change is 3 kilogram-meters per second.

Explanation:

Under the assumption that no external forces are exerted on both the small object and the big object, whose situation is described by the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

$p_{S,1}+p_{B,1} = p_{S,2}+p_{B,2}$ (1)

Where:

$p_{S,1}$ , $p_{S,2}$ - Initial and final momemtums of the small object, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

$p_{B,1}$ , $p_{B,2}$ - Initial and final momentums of the big object, measured in kilogram-meters per second.

If we know that $p_{S,1} = 7\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ , $p_{B,1} = 0\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ and $p_{S, 2} = 4\,\frac{kg\cdot m}{s}$ , then the final momentum of the big object is:
