Question

1. A particle has a mass of 10 kg and a velocity of 5 m/s. What is the momentum of the particle?

Answer 1

✰ Concept :-

⠀

We know that momentum is the product of mass and velocity. Thus, by the following definition, we get :-

⠀

$\qquad \maltese \: \underline{ \boxed{ \purple{ \sf Momentum = Mass \times Velocity }}} \: \star$

⠀

✰ Given Information :-

⠀

• A particle has mass 10 kg
• Moving with velocity 5 m/s

⠀

✰ To Find :-

⠀

• The momentum of the particle

⠀

✰ Solution :-

⠀

Using the formula from the concept section, we get :-

⠀

$\sf \longrightarrow Momentum =10 \: kg \times 5 \: {m}^{ - 1} ~~~ \\ \\ \\\sf \longrightarrow Momentum = {50~kg \: ms}^{ - 1} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow \underline{ \boxed{ \frak{ \orange{Momentum = {50 ~kg\: ms}^{ - 1} }}}} \: \star \: \: \: \: \: \:$

Thus, the momentum of the particle is 50 kg m/s.
