Question

Use the table to answer the question.

The table shows the acceleration of an object pulled with various forces.
Object Mass (kg) Velocity (m/s)
A 0.005 10
B 0.008 5
C 0.010 3
D 0.003 15
A student records the mass of objects A, B, C, and D. Then the velocity of each object is measured using a track and timer. Does object A, B, C, or D have the greatest momentum?

Answer 1

Momentum p = m v.

A: 0.005·10 = 0.05 kg·m/s
B: 0.008·5 = 0.04 kg·m/s
C: 0.010·3 = 0.03 kg·m/s
D: 0.003·15 = 0.045 kg·m/s

Greatest momentum: A.
