4. Calculate the momentum for each scenario: a. .02 kg mass moving at 300 m/s
b. 2 kg mass moving at 40 m/s
c. 200 kg mass moving at 4 m/s

a)

Momentum = 6 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass × velocity

Given that,

Therefore, momentum = (0.02 × 300)kgm/s

Momentum = 6 kgm/s

b)

Momentum =80 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass × velocity

Given that,

Therefore, momentum = (40 × 2)kgm/s

Momentum = 80 kgm/s

c)

Momentum = 800 kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum = mass × velocity

Given that,

Therefore, momentum = (200 × 4)kgm/s

Momentum =800 kgm/s

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
