Question

What is the momentum

of an 800-kg car
| traveling at a velocity
of 10 m/s? What is its
momentum if it speeds
up to 50 m/s?​

Answer 1

P = 8000 Kg m/s

When speed is increased to 50 m/s,

P = 40,000 kg. m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass = 800 Kg

Velocity = 10 m/s

Momentum = ?

Speed increased = 50 m/s

Momentum = ?

Solution:

Formula:

P = mv

P = 800 kg× 10 m/s

P = 8000 Kg m/s

When speed is increased to 50 m/s.

P = mv

P = 800 kg× 50 m/s

P = 40,000 kg. m/s
