The ball's speed is about 13 m/s
[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]
Further explanation
Newton's second law of motion states that the resultant force applied to an object is directly proportional to the mass and acceleration of the object.
[tex]\large {\boxed {F = ma }[/tex]
F = Force ( Newton )
m = Object's Mass ( kg )
a = Acceleration ( m )
[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]
[tex]\large {\boxed {F = \frac{\Delta p}{t} }[/tex]
F = Force ( Newton )
p = Momentum of Object ( kg m/s )
t = Time Taken ( s )
Let us now tackle the problem !
[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]
Given:
mass of ball = m = 2.0 kg
momentum of ball = p = 25 kgm/s
Asked:
speed of the ball = ?
Solution:
We could use formula for momentum to solve this problem:
[tex]p = m v[/tex]
[tex]v = p \div m[/tex]
[tex]v = 25 \div 2.0[/tex]
[tex]v = 12.5 \texttt{ m/s}[/tex]
[tex]v \approx 13 \texttt{ m/s}[/tex]
[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]
Conclusion :
The ball's speed is about 13 m/s
