The momentum of a neutron p = 586.25 kg m / s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of mass and the velocity gives the momentum of an object and it is a vector quantity. It is denoted by the letter p. The unit of momentum is kilogram meter per second (or) kg m / s.

Given mass m = 1.675
* 10, velocity v = 3.500
* 10

Momentum, p = mv

where m represents the mass,

v represents the velocity.

momentum p = (1.675
* 10)
* (3.500
* 10)

momentum p = 586.25 kg m / s.
