Question

a motorcycle has a mass of 250 kg and a velocity of 28 m/s, what is its momentum? answer:____ kg*m/s

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for momentum

Momentum \( p = m\times v\), where \(m\) is mass and \(v\) is velocity.

Step2: Substitute the given values

Given \(m = 250\space kg\) and \(v=28\space m/s\). Then \(p=250\times28\).

Step3: Calculate the product

\(250\times28=(200 + 50)\times28=200\times28+50\times28=5600+1400 = 7000\).

Answer:

\(7000\)
