  • Calculate Football Momentum: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the momentum of the football:

    1. Convert Units:

    * Mass: Convert grams to kilograms (1 kg = 1000 g)

    453 g * (1 kg / 1000 g) = 0.453 kg

    * Speed: Convert miles per hour to meters per second (1 mph ≈ 0.447 m/s)

    30 mph * (0.447 m/s / 1 mph) ≈ 13.41 m/s

    2. Calculate Momentum:

    * Momentum (p) = mass (m) * velocity (v)

    p = 0.453 kg * 13.41 m/s

    p ≈ 6.07 kg·m/s

    Therefore, the momentum of the football is approximately 6.07 kg·m/s.
