Answer:
1175.50 kg m/s
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of Usain Bolt = 93.89 kg
Average velocity in 100- meter sprint = 12.52 m/s
The momentum can be calculated by finding product of mass and velocity as
The momentum [tex]p[/tex] is given by:
[tex]p=m\times v[/tex] kg m/s
where [tex]m[/tex] represents mass and [tex]v[/tex] represents velocity.
Thus momentum of Usain Bolt can be calculated by plugging in the given values for mass and velocity.
[tex]p=93.89\times 12.52[/tex]
∴ [tex]p=1175.50[/tex] kg m/s (Answer)
