\Large {\underline { \sf {Required \; Solution :}}}

We have

  • Momentum, P = 25 kg.m/s
  • Mass, m = 10 kg

We have been asked to calculate its velocity.


\qquad \implies\boxed{\red{\sf{ P = mv}}}\\

  • P denotes momentum
  • m denotes mass
  • v denotes velocity


\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { 25 = 10v} \\


\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { (25)/(10) = v} \\


\quad \twoheadrightarrow\boxed{\red{\sf{ 2.5 \; ms^(-1) = v}}}\\

Therefore, its velocity is 2.5 m/s.
