Question 2

An object has a momentum of 500 kg mls. If its mass is 20 kg, its speed must be
O 25 m/sO 20 m/s50 m/sO 500

Answer 1

Given:

The momentum of the object is p = 500 kg m/s

The mass of the body is m = 20 kg

To find the speed of the object.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed can be calculated by the formula

`\begin{gathered} p=mv \\ v=(p)/(m) \end{gathered}`

On substituting the values, the speed of the object will be

`\begin{gathered} v=(500)/(20) \\ =25\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}`

Thus, the speed of the object is 25 m/s
