To find the mass of the object, we can use the formula for momentum:
momentum = mass x velocity
Rearranging the formula, we have:
mass = momentum / velocity
Substituting the given values, the mass is:
mass = 100 kg x m/s / 5 m/s
mass = 20 kg
Therefore, the mass of the object is 20 kg. The correct option is D.
momentum = mass x velocity
Rearranging the formula, we have:
mass = momentum / velocity
Substituting the given values, the mass is:
mass = 100 kg x m/s / 5 m/s
mass = 20 kg
Therefore, the mass of the object is 20 kg. The correct option is D.
