Answer:
<em>The momentum of the car is 35,000 kg.m/s</em>
Explanation:
<u>Momentum</u>
Momentum is often defined as <em>mass in motion.</em>
Since all objects have mass, if it's moving, then it has momentum. It can be calculated as the product of the mass by the velocity of the object:
If only magnitudes are considered:
p = mv
The car has a mass of m=1,000 kg and travels at v=35 m/s. Calculating its momentum:
p = 1,000 kg * 35 m/s
p = 35,000 kg.m/s
The momentum of the car is 35,000 kg.m/s
Answer:
96046 Ns.
Explanation:
We shall represent velocity in vector form considering east direction as + ve x axis and north as + y direction.
40 km/h in the east
V₁ = 40 i
V₂ = 50j
momentum p₁ = mV₁
= 1500 X 40 i
= 60000 i
Momentum p₂ = mV₂
= 1500 X 50j
= 75000 j
Change in momentum
p₂ - p₁
75000j - 60000i
Magnitude of change
=
= 96046 Ns.
