A 40 kg boy standing on a skateboard throws a 2 kg ball 20 m/s to the left.
a. What is the ball's momentum?
O 10 kg m/s
O 20 kg mis
O 40 kg m/s
O 1 kg m/s

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum =mass * velocity

Substituting into the equation, we have

Momentum = 2 * 20

Momentum = 40 kg m/s
