Question
What is the momentum of a bullet of mass $0.034 \mathrm{kg}$ traveling at $250 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} ?$
Step 1
The momentum (p) of an object is given by the product of its mass (m) and its velocity (v). This can be written as: \[ p = m \cdot v \] Show more…

Find the momentum of each object. A bullet with mass $60.0 \mathrm{~g}$ is fired with an initial velocity of $575 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ from a gun with mass $4.50 \mathrm{~kg}$. What is the speed of the recoil of the gun?

A bullet with mass $60.0 \mathrm{~g}$ is fired with an initial velocity of $575 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ from a gun with mass $4.50 \mathrm{~kg}$. What is the speed of the recoil of the gun?
A 0.020-kg bullet is shot horizontally and collides with a $2.00-\mathrm{kg}$ block of wood. The bullet embeds in the block and the block slides along a horizontal surface for $1.50 \mathrm{m} .$ If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface is $0.400,$ what was the original speed of the bullet?
