Question

What is the momentum of a 6.0 kg bowling ball with a velocity of 2.2 m/s? (Ans: 13.2 kg m/s²)

Answer 1

Given conditions ⇒

Mass of the ball = 6 kg.

Velocity = 2.2 m/s.

Using the Formula,

Momentum = mass × velocity

∴ p = mv

⇒ p = 6 × 2.2

∴ p = 13.2 kgms⁻¹.

Hence, the momentum of the ball is 13.2 kgms⁻¹.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Hi,

A.T.Q.
mass of object 6 kg

velocity = 2.2m/s

Momentum ?

since here rotation is not specified,so question is asking about linear momentum.

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
Linear momentum = Mass x Velocity kg.m/s
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

p = m x V

Linear momentum = 6(2.2) kg.m/s
➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
= 13.2 kg.m/s

Hope this helps you.
