  • Momentum and Speed: Understanding the Relationship and Units
    If you divide momentum by speed, you get mass. Here's why:

    * Momentum (p): Measured in kilogram-meters per second (kg*m/s)

    * Speed (v): Measured in meters per second (m/s)

    Calculation:

    p / v = (kg*m/s) / (m/s) = kg

    Therefore, the units of momentum divided by speed are kilograms (kg), which is the unit of mass.
