Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept of momentum is defined as,

Momentum = mass × velocity

So for the apple,

Momentum of the apple = mass × velocity

= 0.16×2.7 = 0.432 Ns

Answer: 0.432kgm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Momentum of a body is defined as the product of the mass (m) of the body and its velocity (v).

Momentum = Mass × Velocity

Given mass = 0.16kg and velocity = 2.7m/s

Substituting the datas into the formula,

Momentum = 0.16×2.7

Momentum = 0.432kgm/s
