The momentum (P) of an object can be calculated using the formula:
\[ P = m \times v \]
where:
- \( m \) is the mass of the object (in kilograms),
- \( v \) is the velocity of the object (in meters per second).
Given:
- Mass \( m = 0.12 , \text{kg} \)
- Velocity \( v = 150 , \text{m/s} \)
Now, substituting the values into the formula:
\[ P = 0.12 , \text{kg} \times 150 , \text{m/s} \] \[ P = 18 , \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s} \]
Therefore, the momentum of the hockey puck is:
P = 18 kg*m/s
