Answer:

666.67 kg is the mass of a car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Momentum is defined as amount of motion possessed by the the moving body. It is mathematically calculated by multiplying mass into velocity by which object is moving.


Momentum(P)=Mass(m)* Velocity(v)

Mass of the car = m =?

Velocity of the car = v = 15.0 m/s

Momentum of the car = P = 10,000.00 kgm/s


m=(P)/(v)


m=( 10,000.00 kgm/s)/(15.0 m/s)=666.67 kg

666.67 kg is the mass of a car.
