Question

A 36,287 kg truck has a momentum of 907,175 kg • meters per second. What is the truck’s velocity? meters per second

Answer 1

Given,

The mass of the truck is = 36287 kilograms

The momentum of the truck is = 907175 kg.m/s

To find,

The velocity of the given truck.

Solution,

To solve this mathematical problem, we have to use the mathematical relationship between the mass of the truck and the momentum of the truck.

Momentum = Mass × Velocity

Velocity = Momentum/Mass

Let, the velocity of the given truck = x m/s

(Assume, x as a variable to do the further mathematical calculations.)

According to the data mentioned in the question,and according to the above mentioned formula,

x = 907175/36287

x = 25

Hence, the velocity of the truck is 25 m/s.

Answer 2

Answer:The answer is 25 m/s
