Understanding Momentum
Momentum is a measure of an object's mass in motion. It's calculated by:
* Momentum (p) = Mass (m) x Velocity (v)
Applying the Formula
1. Mass (m): 1000 kg
2. Velocity (v): 250 m/s
Calculation:
* Momentum (p) = 1000 kg * 250 m/s
* Momentum (p) = 250,000 kg m/s
Answer: The momentum of the plane is 250,000 kg m/s.
