Question

A 1.0kg ball has a momentum of 12kg m/s what is the balls speed

Answer 1

The momentum of an object is given by:

`p=mv`
where
p is the momentum
m is the mass
v is the velocity of the object

The ball in our problem has a mass of m=1.0 kg and a momentum of
`p=12 kg m/s`, therefore we can use the previous formula to find its velocity:

`v= (p)/(m)= (12 kg m/s)/(1.0 kg)=12 m/s`
