What is the magnitude of the momentum of a motorcycle of a mass of 100 kg at rest What is its momentum if this motorcycle when it travels at 40 m s?

Respuesta :

The magnitude of a momentum of a  motorcycle of a mass of 100kg at rest stage is 0kg-m/sec and momentum of a motorcycle is 4000kg-m/sec when it travels with 40m/sec speed.

We know very well that momentum is defined  as the quantity of the motion of the body.

Momentum is represented by the product of mass and velocity, or in other words p=mass × velocity

Momentum is called as a vector quantity. It means it has proper magnitude and proper direction.

From momentum, impulse is also calculated.

At rest stage velocity of motorcycle is 0m/sec

Therefore, momentum=100×0=0Kg-m/sec

Now, when motorcycle is moving with speed 40m/sec, then momentum is

=>p=100kg×40m/sec

=>p=4000kg-m/sec

There are various laws in physics  which are derived by the conservation of momentum.

Hence, magnitude of momentum are 0kg-m/sec and 4000kg-m/sec.
