Question

An object of mass 5 kg and velocity 10 m/s has a linear momentum of: (A) 5 kg-m/s, (B) 10 kg-m/s, (C) 50 kg-m/s, (D) 250 kg-m/s^2, (E) none of the above.

Answer 1

Linear momentum, p = 50 kg-m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an object, m = 5 kg

Velocity, v = 10 m/s

We need to find the linear momentum of that object. It is given by :

`p=m* v`

`p=5\ kg* 10\ m/s`

p = 50 kg-m/s

So, the linear momentum of that object is 50 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
