Mass (m) = Momentum (p) / Velocity (v)
Here's how it works:
* Momentum (p): This is a measure of an object's motion and is calculated by multiplying its mass (m) by its velocity (v). The formula for momentum is: p = m * v
* Velocity (v): This is the rate of change of an object's position over time, and it has both magnitude (speed) and direction.
Example:
Imagine you have an object with a momentum of 20 kg m/s and a velocity of 5 m/s. To find its mass, you would do the following:
* Mass (m) = Momentum (p) / Velocity (v)
* m = 20 kg m/s / 5 m/s
* m = 4 kg
Therefore, the object's mass is 4 kg.
