To find the mass of the object, you can use the formula for momentum:

\[
\text{Momentum} = \text{mass} \times \text{velocity}
\]

Given that the momentum is 100 kg⋅m/s and the velocity is 5 m/s, we can rearrange the formula to solve for mass:

\[
\text{mass} = \frac{\text{Momentum}}{\text{Velocity}} = \frac{100 \, \text{kg⋅m/s}}{5 \, \text{m/s}} = 20 \, \text{kg}
\]

Thus, the mass of the object is **20 kg**.
