An object of mass 20 kg is moving with a velocity of 10 m/s. Its momentum will be:
The correct option is (B) 200 kg.m/s
Given,
Mass of the body = 20 kg
Velocity of the body = 10 m/s
We know,
The momentum of a body is given by the product of the mass of the body and velocity.
So,
MomentumP=Massm×Velocityv
Putting all the values
P=20×10=200 kg.m/s
Hence the momentum of the body is 200 kg.m/s
