  • Momentum Calculation: Magnitude of Momentum for a Given Mass and Velocity
    Here's how to calculate the magnitude of momentum:

    Understanding Momentum

    Momentum is a measure of an object's mass in motion. It's calculated by:

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

    Calculation

    * mass (m) = 60 kg

    * velocity (v) = 2 m/s

    * Momentum (p) = 60 kg × 2 m/s = 120 kg·m/s

    Answer: The magnitude of the momentum is 120 kg·m/s.
