Calculate the momentum of a 200kg object moving 1m/s and a 1-kg object moving 200m/s?
Momentum = m*V = 200kg * 1m/s = 200.
Momentum = m*V = 1kg * 200m/s = 200.
To calculate momentum, you need to multiply the mass of an object by its velocity. The formula for momentum is:
Momentum = mass × velocity
Let's calculate the momentum for each object:
1) For the 200 kg object moving at 1 m/s:
Momentum = 200 kg × 1 m/s
Momentum = 200 kg·m/s
So, the momentum of the 200 kg object moving at 1 m/s is 200 kg·m/s.
2) For the 1 kg object moving at 200 m/s:
Momentum = 1 kg × 200 m/s
Momentum = 200 kg·m/s
So, the momentum of the 1 kg object moving at 200 m/s is also 200 kg·m/s.
Therefore, the momentum of both objects is equal to 200 kg·m/s.
