Given,

The mass is


m=0.2\text{ kg}

The momentum of an object is


p=3.6\text{ kg.m/s}

To find: Calculate the speed of an object.

Solution:

The momentum of an object is calculated by the formula.


\begin{gathered} p=mv \\ 3.6=0.2* v \\ v=(3.6)/(0.2) \\ v=18\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Hence, the given option (b) is correct.
