What is the magnitude momentum of a 2 kg body that moves with a speed of 3 m/s?(1 point) Responses 6.0 6.0 5.0 5.0 1.0 1.0 1.5

1 answer

The magnitude of momentum (p) can be calculated using the formula:

\[ p = m \times v \]

where:

  • \( m \) is the mass of the body (in kg),
  • \( v \) is the velocity of the body (in m/s).

Given:

  • \( m = 2 , \text{kg} \)
  • \( v = 3 , \text{m/s} \)

Substituting the values into the formula:

\[ p = 2 , \text{kg} \times 3 , \text{m/s} = 6 , \text{kg m/s} \]

Thus, the magnitude of momentum is 6.0 kg m/s.
