Answer:

Mass, m = 6 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The momentum of the object, p = 18 kg-m/s

Velocity, v = 3 m/s

We need to find the mass of an object.

The momentum of an object is given by :

p = mv

m is mass of the object


m=(p)/(v)\\\\m=(18\ kg-m/s)/(3\ m/s)\\\\m=6\ kg

So, the mass of the object is 6 kg.
