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?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

What's the definition of momentum? Use that formula here. So what is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

p = mv

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Right. You know p and you know m. So now you just need to solve for v.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how the equation is gonna be rearranged? momentum / mass?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Yes. If p = mv then v = p/m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it going to be the same equation?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

Use exactly the same formula: p = mv

OpenStudy (anonymous):

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?

OpenStudy (jamesj):

The car's final velocity could be anything in the direction of north, but we can't say what its magnitude is.
