what is the momentum of a 0.60 g bumble bee flying at 15km/h
h must be changed to s.
To find the momentum of an object, we can use the equation:
Momentum (p) = mass (m) x velocity (v)
First, we need to convert the mass of the bumblebee from grams to kilograms. Since there are 1000 grams in a kilogram, we divide 0.60 g by 1000 to get 0.0006 kg.
Next, we need to convert the velocity from km/h to m/s. To do this, we multiply 15 km/h by 1000/3600 to get 4.17 m/s (rounded to two decimal places).
Now, we can simply multiply the mass and velocity together:
p = m x v
= 0.0006 kg x 4.17 m/s
≈ 0.0025 kg·m/s
Therefore, the momentum of the 0.60 g bumblebee flying at 15 km/h is approximately 0.0025 kg·m/s.
