Question

Write the equation for momentum, first using symbols for the variables, then using words for the variables.

Answer 1

Hi

Here is the equation for the momentum

                                              p = m x v

here m indicates mass and v indicates velocity.

Using words it can also be written as:

                                  Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum of a body is basically the product of its mass and velocity.The standard unit of momentum is the kg x m/s, because the unit of mass is kilograms or kg and unit of veocity is metre per second or m/s, Therefore the product of both is the unit of momentum.

Hope it help!

Answer 2

Answer

momentum is  property which is possessed by a moving body due to its mass and its motion. SI unit of momentum is $kg\frac{m}{s}$

momentum of a body which have mass m and which is moving with velocity v is given as

$p=m\times v$

In words, momentum of a body can be defined as the product of mass of the body and velocity with which it is moving

                                   Momentum = mass x velocity

Hope it will help you
