Calculate the linear momentum of a pickup truck that has a mass of 1100 kg and is traveling eastward at 22 m/s.
momentum=mass*velocty
To calculate the linear momentum of an object, we need to multiply its mass by its velocity.
Given:
Mass of the pickup truck (m) = 1100 kg
Velocity of the pickup truck (v) = 22 m/s
The formula for linear momentum (p) is:
p = m * v
Now, substitute the given values into the formula:
p = 1100 kg * 22 m/s
Calculating:
p = 24200 kg⋅m/s
Therefore, the linear momentum of the pickup truck is 24200 kg⋅m/s, in the eastward direction.
To calculate the linear momentum of an object, we multiply its mass by its velocity. The formula for linear momentum is:
Linear momentum (p) = mass (m) × velocity (v)
Given that the mass of the pickup truck is 1100 kg and its velocity is 22 m/s, we can plug in these values into the formula to calculate the linear momentum.
p = m × v
= 1100 kg × 22 m/s
= 24,200 kg·m/s
Therefore, the linear momentum of the pickup truck is 24,200 kg·m/s when it is traveling eastward at 22 m/s.
