Answer:

5hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass•Accelleration=Momentum (5kg•5hrs=25Mps)

Mass÷Momentum=Accelleration (25Mps÷5kg=5hrs)

Answer:

5m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

p=mv, or momentum (p) is equal to mass (m) times velocity (v).

so:

m=5Kg

p=25Kgm/s

v=p÷m

v=25÷5

v=5m/s

hoped this helped :)
