Question

6. A 1400 kg car is also traveling in a straight line. Its momentum is equal to that *

of the truck in the previous question. What is the velocity of the car? ROUND TO
THE NEAREST HUNDREDTHS (2 DECIMAL PLACES)

Answer 1

V = 2.86 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m = 1400 kg

p = 4000 kg·m/s

_________________

V- ?

Momentum:

p = m·V

Velocity:

V = p / m

V = 4000 / 1400 ≈ 2.86 m/s
