How much momentum does a #6 kg# object moving at #1/4 m/s# have?

Answer 1

#3/2"kg m s"^-1#

The momentum of an object moving along a straight line, #p#, is related to its mass #m# and velocity #v# through the following equation:

#p=mv#, and here:

#m=6"kg"#

#v=1/4"m/s"#

Entering:

#p=6*1/4=3/2"kg m s"^-1#

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
