Atruck is speeding up as it travels on an interstate. the truck's momentum (in kg · m/s) is proportional to the truck's speed (in m/s). a) at some moment the truck's momentum is 48300 kg · m/s and the truck's speed is 23 m/s. at this moment, the truck's momentum (in kg · m/s) is how many times as large as the truck's speed (in m/s) b) this means that as the truck travels, the truck's momentum (in kg · m/s) is always times as large as the truck's speed (in m/s). c) if the truck is traveling at 17 m/s, what is the momentum (in kg m/s)

a)48300 times

b)P = 821100  kg · m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m = 48300 kg

v= 23 m/s

We know that linear momentum (P) given as

P = m v

P = 48300 x 23  kg · m/s

So we can say that truck momentum is 48300 times its velocity.

Now given that

v= 17 m/s

P = m v

P = 48300 x 17  kg · m/s

P = 821100  kg · m/s

a) 2100, b) 2100, c)

Explanation:

a) At some moment the truck's momentum is 48300 kg · m/s and the truck's speed is 23 m/s. At this moment, truck's momentum (in kg · m/s) is how many times as large as the truck's speed (in m/s):

b) This means that as the truck travels, the truck's momentum (in kg · m/s) is always 2100 times as large as the truck's speed (in m/s).

c) If the truck is traveling at 17 m/s, what is the momentum (in kg m/s):

b.

hope this : )
