A 1 kg mouse walks across the road at a velocity of 0.01 mL per second what is the mouse’s momentum?

Answer 1

To calculate momentum, we use the formula:

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

Given:

• Mass of the mouse \( m = 1 , \text{kg} \)
• Velocity of the mouse \( v = 0.01 , \text{m/s} \)

Now, we can plug the values into the formula:

\[ p = 1 , \text{kg} \times 0.01 , \text{m/s} = 0.01 , \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s} \]

Thus, the momentum of the mouse is \( 0.01 , \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s} \).
