Given momentum (P) and mass (m), the velocity of the object is dividing the momentum by the mass. The total mass of the skateboarder and the skateboard is 47.5 kg. Performing the operation,
                              v = P / m
                             v = (264 kg m/s  / 47.5 kg) = 5.56 m/s
Therefore, the velocity would be 5.56 m/s. 

If she has to attain a momentum of 264 kg m/s, the velocity of the skateboarder should be  5.56 m/s.

What is momentum?

Momentum of any object is the product of the velocity of the object and its mass.

P =mv

Given is the momentum P =264 kg m/s and mass m= 47.5 kg , then the velocity will be

264 kg m/s = 47.5 kg x v

v = 5.56 m/s

Therefore, the velocity should be 5.56 m/s.
