Question

What is the momentum of an 80 kg ice skater gliding across the ice at a speed of 5 m/s

Answer 1

momentum = 400 kg⋅m/s

we know that the relation between momentum, velocity, and mass is

P = mv

where p is the momentum

m is mass

v is velocity

now putting values we get,

P = 80x5

= 400 kg⋅m/s
