  • Calculate Velocity from Momentum: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the velocity of the car:

    Understanding Momentum

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

    * p = m * v

    * where:

    * p is momentum (in kg*m/s)

    * m is mass (in kg)

    * v is velocity (in m/s)

    Solving for Velocity

    1. Rearrange the formula: We need to find velocity (v), so let's rearrange the momentum formula:

    * v = p / m

    2. Plug in the values:

    * v = 300 kg*m/s / 2000 kg

    3. Calculate:

    * v = 0.15 m/s

    Answer: The velocity of the car is 0.15 m/s.
