Question

A toy car with a mass of 2 kg is moving along the floor at 2 m/s,

calculate its momentum.

Please show your work! :)


Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The answer is 4 kg m/s

because p = m x v , 2 kg x 2m/s = 4 kg m/s

Answer 2

Answer: The momentum of the toy car is 4 kg.m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Momentum is defined as the force that keeps the object moving.

It is also defined as the product of mass and velocity of an object.

Mathematically,

`p=m* v`

where,

p = momentum of the toy car = ?

m = mass of the toy car = 2 kg

v = velocity of the toy car = 2 m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

`p=2kg* 2m/s\\\\p=4kg.m/s`

Hence, the momentum of the toy car is 4 kg.m/s
