define momentum *
your answer
write the equation for calculating momentum from mass and velocity *
your answer
what is the si unit for momentum? *
your answer
Momentum is a physical quantity. It is defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. The formula \(p = mv\) (where \(p\) is momentum, \(m\) is mass, and \(v\) is velocity) is used to calculate it. The SI unit for mass \(m\) is \(kg\) (kilogram) and for velocity \(v\) is \(m/s\) (metre per second). When we multiply them (\(kg\times m/s\)), we get the SI unit for momentum.
