Question

If the truck has a mass of 2,000 kilograms , what's its momentum?(v=35 m/s)

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 70,000 \ kg*m/s}}$

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

$p=m*v$

The mass of the truck is 2,000 kilograms and the velocity is 35 meters per second.

$m= 2000 \ kg \\v= 35 \ m/s$

Substitute the values into the formula and multiply.

$p= 2000 \ kg * 35 \ m/s \\p= 70,000 \ kg*m/s$

The truck's momentum is 70,000 kilograms meters per second.
