Question

amy has a mass of 30 kg, and she is riding a skateboard traveling 5 meters per second. what is her momentum? 5 kg·m/s 6 kg·m/s 30 kg·m/s 150 kg·m/s

Explanation:

Step1: Recall momentum formula

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

Step2: Identify values

Given \( m = 30 \, \text{kg} \) and \( v = 5 \, \text{m/s} \).

Step3: Calculate momentum

Substitute values into the formula: \( p = 30 \, \text{kg} \times 5 \, \text{m/s} = 150 \, \text{kg·m/s} \).

Answer:

150 kg·m/s (corresponding to the option "150 kg·m/s")
