What is the magnitude momentum of a 2 kg body that moves with a speed of 3 m/s?
A. 1.5
B. 6.0
C. 1.0
D. 5.0
The magnitude momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity.
Given:
Mass (m) = 2 kg
Velocity (v) = 3 m/s
Magnitude momentum (p) = mass × velocity
p = 2 kg × 3 m/s
p = 6 kg·m/s
Therefore, the magnitude momentum of the 2 kg body moving with a speed of 3 m/s is 6.0 kg·m/s.
Answer: B. 6.0
