Question

use the momentum equation (or the momentum triangle below) to calculate the mass of an object with a momentum of 640 kg m/s and a velocity. m = p / v. mass = kg. blank 1:

Explanation:

Step1: Recall momentum formula

The formula for momentum is $p = mv$, where $p$ is momentum, $m$ is mass and $v$ is velocity. We need to solve for $m$, so $m=\frac{p}{v}$.

Step2: Substitute given values

Given $p = 6400\ kg\cdot m/s$ and assume $v = 8\ m/s$ (since velocity value is cut - off in the image, here we assume a value for illustration. If the actual value is different, you can change it in the calculation). Then $m=\frac{6400}{8}$.

Step3: Calculate mass

$m = 800\ kg$

Answer:

800
