Given:
The velocity of an object is: v = 3.1 m/s
The momentum of an object is: p = 2365 kg m/s
To find:
The mass of an object.
Explanation:
If a particle/body/object having mass "m" is moving with velocity "v", then the momentum "p" of the particle is the product of its mass and the velocity.
The momentum of the object is thus given as:
[tex]p=mv[/tex]Rearranging the above equation, we get:
[tex]m=\frac{p}{v}[/tex]Substitute the values in the above equation, we get:
[tex]m=\frac{2365\text{ kg m/s}}{3.1\text{ m/s}}=762.90\text{ kg}[/tex]Final answer:
Thus, the mass of an object is 762.90 kg.
