Answer 1

To calculate the momentum of an object, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Momentum} (p) = \text{mass} (m) \times \text{velocity} (v)
\]

Given that the mass \( m = 5 \) kg and the velocity \( v = 20 \) m/s, you can substitute these values into the formula:

\[
p = 5 \, \text{kg} \times 20 \, \text{m/s} = 100 \, \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s}
\]

Therefore, the momentum of the object is **100 kg⋅m/s**.
