Question

What is the momentum of a car with a mass of 2,000 kg moving at a constant velocity of 20 m/s?(1 point) Responses 0 kg⋅m/s 0 kilograms times meters per second 0.01 kg⋅m/s 0 point 01 kilograms times meters per second 40,000 kg⋅m/s 40,000 kilograms times meters per second 100 kg⋅m/s

Answer 1

The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the mass of the car is given as 2,000 kg and its velocity is 20 m/s.

Momentum = Mass × Velocity

Momentum = 2,000 kg × 20 m/s

Momentum = 40,000 kg⋅m/s

Therefore, the correct answer is 40,000 kg⋅m/s.
