B. 384 m/s
C. 8 m/s
D. 6 m/s

Answer 1

Question :-

• If the Mass of an Object is 8 kg and its Momentum is 48 kg m/s . What is its Velocity ?

• 12 m/s
• 384 m/s
• 8 m/s
• 6 m/s

Answer :-

• Velocity of the Object is 6 m/s .

Explanation :-

As per the provided information in the given question, we have been given that the Mass of the Object is 8 kg . Its Momentum is given as 48 kg m/s . And, we have been asked to calculate the Velocity of the Object .

For calculating the Velocity , we will use the Formula :-

$\bigstar \: \: \: \boxed{ \sf{ \: Velocity \: = \: \dfrac{Momentum}{Mass} \: }}$

Therefore , by Substituting the given values in the above Formula :-

$\dag \: \: \: \sf {Velocity \: = \: \dfrac {Momentum}{Mass} }$

$\longmapsto \: \: \sf {Velocity \: = \: \dfrac {48}{8} }$

$\longmapsto \: \: \textbf {\textsf {Velocity \: = \: 6 \: m/s}}$

Hence :-
