Answer:

The answer is 2 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the velocity given the mass and momentum we use the formula


v = (p)/(m) \\

where

p is the momentum

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question

p = 6 kgm/s

m = 3 kg

We have


v = (6)/(3) \\

We have the final answer as

2 m/s

Hope this helps you
