Question

A 1,400-kg car is traveling north at 13 m/s. Calculate the momentum of

the car.

O 18,200 kg.m/s north

O 18.500 kg.m/s north

O 19,200 kg•m/s north

0 8.500 kg.m/s north

Answer 1

18200kgm/s north

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car = 1400kg

Velocity = 13m/s

Unknown:

Momentum of the car = ?

Solution:

Momentum is the quantity of motion a body posses.

It is expressed as ;

Momentum = mass x velocity = 1400 x 13

Momentum = 18200kgm/s north
