A bowling ball of mass 4 kg moves in a straight line at 3.93 m/s. How fast must a Ping-Pong ball of mass 2.293 g move in a straight line so that the two balls have the same momentum? Answer in units of m/s

Respuesta :

M = mass of the bowling ball = 4 kg

V = speed of bowling ball = 3.93 m/s

P = magnitude of momentum of bowling ball = ?

magnitude of momentum of bowling ball is given as

P = MV

inserting the values

P = 4 x 3.93

P = 15.72 kgm/s

m = mass of ping-pong ball = 2.293 g = 2.293 x 10⁻³ kg

v = speed of the ping-pong ball = ?

p = magnitude of momentum of ping-pong ball

Given that :

magnitude of momentum of ping-pong ball  =  magnitude of momentum of bowling ball

p = P

m v = 15.72

(2.293 x 10⁻³) v = 15.72

v = 6.86 x 10³ m/s
