Answer:

Momentum (P) = 21kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the amount of motion contained in a body.

It depends upon the mass of the body and the velocity with which it is in motion.

Now, the weight of the ball= 6.0 kg

Velocity = 3.5 m/s

So, Momentum (P) = Mass x Velocity

= 6 kg x 3.5 m/s = 21 kgm/s

Hence, Momentum (P) = 21kgm/s
