Question

Define momentum of a moving body. Is it scaler or vector quantity?What is it's S.I. unit?​

Answer 1

Answer:-

Momentum:- Product of mass and velocity of an object is called momenum of the body.

Momentum is a vector Quantity . It means that momenum have both Magnitude and direction.

SI unit of Momentum is kg/m.

Extra Information !!

To calculate Momentum of a body you have to use this formula

→ P = mv

here

P is the Momentum

m is the mass of body

v is the velocity of body.

✧ Force is the product of mass and acceleration.

✧ SI unit of Force is Newton.

✧ It is denoted by N.

✧ Force is vector Quantity i.e., both Magnitude and direction.

✧ Mathematical term

⟹ Force = Mass×Acceleration
