An 6 kg object accelerating from 17 m/s to 10 m/s. What is the change in momentum of the object?

The change in momentum (in kg*m/s) = 42

Explanation:

The change in momentum is equal to

Final Momentum - Initial Momentum

As we know

Momentum is equal to the product of mass and velocity

where m is the mass of the body and v is the speed

Thus, change in momentum

here m1 = m2 = 6 Kg

Substituting the given values in above equation we get -

 kg m/s
