A kilogram ball is rolling in a straight line if its momentum 11.7 is 7.02 kg m/s what is the ball's velocity?
What's the definition of momentum? Use that formula here. So what is it?
p = mv
Right. You know p and you know m. So now you just need to solve for v.
so how the equation is gonna be rearranged? momentum / mass?
Yes. If p = mv then v = p/m
thanks! :) & i got one more problem.
A beach ball is rolling in a straight line toward you with a momentum 2.8 kg m/s. It has a velocity of 0.505 m/s. What is the ball's mass?
is it going to be the same equation?
Use exactly the same formula: p = mv
okay, LAST one.
A car has a weight of 156.8 N and travels North for 8.9 seconds. What is the car's final velocity?
The car's final velocity could be anything in the direction of north, but we can't say what its magnitude is.
