a table tennis ball with a mass of 0.003 kg and a soccer ball with a mass of 0.43 kg are both set in motion at 16 m / s calculate and compare the momentum of both balls

Respuesta :

using the momentum formula: p=mv
.003*16=.048
.43*16=6.88

Answer:

[tex]P_1 = 0.048 kg m/s[/tex]

[tex]P_2 = 6.88 kg m/s[/tex]

Momentum of Soccer ball is more than the momentum of tennis ball

Explanation:

As we know that momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity

so we have

momentum of the tennis ball is given as

[tex]m_1 = 0.003 kg[/tex]

[tex]v = 16 m/s[/tex]

[tex]P_1 = 0.003 \times 16[/tex]

[tex]P_1 = 0.048 kg m/s[/tex]

Momentum of soccer ball is given as

[tex]m_2 = 0.43 kg[/tex]

[tex]v = 16 m/s[/tex]

[tex]P_2 = 0.43 \times 16[/tex]

[tex]P_2 = 6.88 kg m/s[/tex]

Momentum of Soccer ball is more than the momentum of tennis ball
