Question

If a bullet with a mass of 0.005kg is fired from a

gun at a speed of 1000 m/s, what is its
momentum?
what’s the v?

Answer 1

5kgm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of bullet = 0.005kg

Speed = 1000m/s

Unknown:

Momentum = ?

Solution:

Momentum is the amount of motion a body possesses.

Mathematically;

Momentum = mass x velocity

Now insert the parameters and solve;

Momentum = 0.005 x 1000 = 5kgm/s
