Answer:
75000kg*m/s

Step-by-step explanation:


p=mv

where;

p = momentum

m = mass = 3000kg

v = velocity = 25m/s

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first thing we need to do is convert 90km/h to m/s. Our conversion factors here are: 1km = 1000m and 1h = 3600s


90km/h((1000m)/(1km))((1h)/(3600s) )=25m/s

Plug your values in the formula:


p=(3000kg)(25m/s)\\p=75000kg*m/s
