A 35 kg object has -450 kgm/s of momentum. Calculate its velocity.

Hi there!

Recall the equation for momentum:

[tex]\large\boxed{p = mv}\\[/tex]

p = momentum (kgm/s)

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

We can plug in the given values to solve for velocity:

[tex]-450 = 35v\\\\v = \frac{-450}{35} = \boxed{12.86 m/s}[/tex]
