What is the magnitude and direction of the momentum of a 1200 kg truck traveling at 20m/s towards the east

Given :

A 1200 kg truck traveling at 20 m/s towards the east.

To Find :

The magnitude and direction of the momentum.

Solution :

We know, momentum is given by :

Momentum, P = mv

P = 1200 × 20 kg m/s

P = 24000 kg m/s

Now, we know, direction of momentum is same as the direction of velocity.

Therefore, momentum of truck is 24000 kg m/s and direction is towards the east.

temp rises, and expansion

the box does not move because you need to use a force greater than 300 n. you are only using 50 n. it needs to at least be 301 n for the box to move because then it is an unbalanced force and it will move the way that the greater force is pushing it. if you use only 300 n it will be a balanced force and will not move because the force you are exerting on the   box is the same as its force.

hope this !

im sorry if i went too in depth, i am going to include a link to a video on khan academy that will explain this.   hope that you like the video and that it explains more in detail to you.

that is the link.
