Question

A sparrow can fly at 12.5 m/s. What is its mass if it has a momentum of 0.475 kg m/s? 1 point

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find:-

• Mass of the sparrow .

Answer:-

According to the given question,

Momentum (p) of the sparrow = 0.475 kg-m/s

Velocity of the sparrow = 12.5m/s

As we know that,

• Momentum = mass * velocity

On substituting the respective values, we have;

→ 0.475 kg-m/s = m * 12.5m/s

→ m = 0.475/12.5 kg

→ m = 0.038kg = 38g

Henceforth the mass of the sparrow is 38g.
