Momentum = mass * velocity
Momentum = 1,300 * 28
Momentum = 36,400

Therefore, the momentum of the car is 36,400kg m/s :)

Answer:

Momentum of the car is 36400 kg-m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m = 1300 kg

Speed of the car, v = 28 m/s (towards north)

To find :

The momentum of car, p

Solve :

Let p is the momentum of an object. It can be calculated by the product of mass and its velocity. The formula to find it is given by :


p=m* v


p=1300\ kg* 28\ m/s


p=36400\ kgm/s

Therefore, the momentum of the car is 36400 kg-m/s.
