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 the object's mass by its velocity.
* Velocity (v): This is a measure of an object's speed and direction.
Example:
Let's say an object has a momentum of 20 kg*m/s and a velocity of 5 m/s. To find the mass, we would do:
* Mass = Momentum / Velocity
* Mass = 20 kg*m/s / 5 m/s
* Mass = 4 kg
Therefore, the mass of the object is 4 kg.
Important Note: Make sure the units of momentum and velocity are consistent before using the formula. For instance, momentum should be in kg*m/s and velocity in m/s.
