Answer:

The product of the mass and the volume is known as momentum.

According to the law of momentum, it is stated that the two or more bodies remain in a constant state unless an external force is applied in an isolated room.

Momentum depends on the following:-

Mass

Velocity

Momentum = MASS \ X \ VOLUMEMomentum=MASS X VOLUME

\begin{gathered}momentum = 3000kgm/s\\\\mass = 2000kg\\\\velocity =\frac{momentum}{mass}\\\\v= \frac{3000}{2000} \\\\v= 1.5m/s\end{gathered}

momentum=3000kgm/s

mass=2000kg

velocity=

mass

momentum

v=

2000

3000

v=1.5m/s
