48.93 Kg(m)/(s) is the "momentum" of a kid.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Momentum" of an object is defined as the "velocity" changed by an object by moving the object from "one place" to "another place". The "Momentum" of an object is represented as "
p". It is the product of the "mass of object" and the "velocity of object". It is mathematically written as
p=m* v.

Where, "m" is mass of object and "v" is velocity of object.

Given that,

Mass of a kid is 23.3 Kg.

Velocity of a kid is 2.1 m/s.

Now, to calculate momentum of the given object us the formula
p=m* v.

Plug the values,


p=23.3* 2.1


p=48.93 kg\frac m{s}
