Answer:

360 kg m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the momentum all we have to do is: mass x velocity

1) Multiply

  • 18 x 20 = 360 kg m/s

TOP TIP:

When working out momentum or any physics equation we have to make sure the units match with the formula. Eg if the units were grams and we didn't convert it to kg our answer would have been wrong!

Hope this helps, have a lovely day! :)
