Answer:

Momentum = 150 000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass × velocity

Given that,

  • mass = 10 000 kg
  • velocity = 15 m/s

Therefore, momentum = (10 000 × 15)kgm/s

Momentum = 150 000 kgm/s

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\sf p=150,000 \ kg*m/s}[/tex]

Explanation:

Momentum can be found by multiplying the mass by the velocity.

[tex]p=mv[/tex]

The mass of the space ship is 10,000 kilograms and its velocity is 15 meters per second.

[tex]m=10,000 \ kg\\v= 15 \ m/s[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]p=10,000 \ kg * 15 \ m/s[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]p=150,000 \ kg*m/s[/tex]

The momentum of the space ship is 150,000 kilograms meters per second
