An 74,769kg airplane is flying at 217m/s to the East. What is the magnitude of the momentum of the airplane

Sagot :

Given,

The mass of the airplane, m=74,769 kg

The speed of the airplane, v=217 m/s

The momentum can be defined as the product of the mass of an object and its velocity.

Thus, the magnitude of the momentum of the airplane is given by,

[tex]p=mv[/tex]

On substituting the known values,

[tex]\begin{gathered} p=74769\times217 \\ =16.22\times10^6\text{ kg}\cdot\text{m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus the magnitude of the airplane is 16.22×10⁶ kg·m/s.
