Question

a football player has a mass of 65 kg and is moving with a velocity of 5 m/s. what is the players momentum?
13 kg·m/s
70 kg·m/s
305 kg·m/s
325 kg·m/s

Explanation:

Step1: Recall momentum formula

The formula for momentum $p$ is $p = m\times v$, where $m$ is mass and $v$ is velocity.

Step2: Substitute given values

Given $m = 65$ kg and $v=5$ m/s, then $p=65\times5$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$p = 325$ kg·m/s.

Answer:

D. 325 kg·m/s
