Question

momentum

Answer 1

momebtum of 15000 pound car driving at 80 kmph

Answer 2

i think it is p = mv
so 15000 * 80 = 12,000,000

Answer 3

Do you happen to remember the equation for momentum?
If not, I'd be glad to write it on the board.

Answer 4

Good! Do you remember what m and v represent?

Answer 5

mass and velocity

Answer 6

And that's correct about m and v, what should we use for the mass in this problem?

Answer 7

kg and m/s for velocity

Answer 8

Yes, so which of our given numbers is related to mass? (we'll need to convert units a little)

Answer 9

oh ya my bad 6804 kg and 50 mph

Answer 10

Are pounds or kmph more closely related to kg?

Answer 11
