Answer:

Mass is 4 kg. Check explanation!

Step-by-step explanation:

P = M times V

Given:

P = 44 kg⋅m/s

V = 11 m/s

M = ?

We can go about it several ways..

1) Derive the equation so mass is isolated. m = p/v

2) Plug in values and find missing m, still isolating m

1) m = p/v = m = 44/11 = 4

Mass is 4 kg
