Question

What is the momentum of a 0.145 kg softball traveling at 10.0 m/s?

Answer 1

p=mv=(0.145 kg)*(10.0 m/s) = 1.45 kg*m/s, so it is choice B

Answer 2

Momentum of the softball, p = 1.45 kg-m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the softball, m = 0.145 kg

Speed of the ball, v = 10 m/s

We need to find the momentum of the softball. We know that by calculating the product of mass and velocity of the object, we can find its momentum as :

`p=m* v`

`p=0.145\ kg* 10\ m/s`

p = 1.45 kg-m/s

So, the momentum of the softball is 1.45 kg-m/s. Hence, this s the required solution.
