Question

The total linear momentum of a bus of mass 4000 kg that is

moving at a speed of 25 m/s and a truck of mass 2000 kg that
is moving at a speed of 20 m/s is kg. m/s.

Answer 1

Answer: 140,000

Step-by-step explanation:

You simply add both of the momentums.

(
`m_(1)` x
`v_(1)`) + (
`m_(2)` x
`v_(2)`)

`m_(1)` = 4,000kg

`v_(1)` = 25m/s

`m_(2)` = 2,000kg

`v_(2)` = 20m/s

(4,000kg x 25m/s) + (2,000kg x 20m/s)

(100,000) + (40,000) = 140,000
