Question

Bernie, whose mass is 70 kg, leaves a ski jump with a velocity of 21 m/s. What is Bernie's momentum as he leaves the ski jump?

Answer 1

with the formula of p=mv you multiply 70x21=1470, momentum (p)

Answer 2

Answer: Bernie's momentum as he leaves the ski jump 1,470 kg m/s.

Explanation:

Mass of the Bernie's body = 70 kg

Velocity with which Bernie left for the ski jump = 21 m/s

Momentum of the Bernie :

$Momentum=Mass\times Velocity=70 kg\times 21/ms=1,470 kg m/s$

Bernie's momentum as he leaves the ski jump 1,470 kg m/s.
