Answer:

Momentum, p = 23250 kg m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Mass of a car, m = 1550 kg

Speed pf car, v = 15 m/s

We need to find the momentum of the car. The formula for the momentum of an object is given by :

p = mv

Substituting all the values in the above formula

p = 1550 kg × 15 m/s

p = 23250 kg m/s

So, the momentum of the car is 23250 kg m/s.
