  1. I got a V of 8.32m/s for #3 by using P/M1+M2=V

    1. i also got 8.32 m/s
      the combined masses are 250 kg, divide the momentum by 250 to cancel kg which leaves you with 8.32 m/s
      (2080/250)=V

    2. For this one, I got 250 m/s. Again, I multiplied 2.08 by 10^4 and got 20800, NOT 2080.

    3. i got 83.2 m/s im not sure where i added on the extra zero in the problem.

    4. you're right! it is 83.2 i lost a zero it should be 20800. for my other one i also lost a zero when writing it but the answer was still correct

  2. #4 I used P/M=V to get 7930.62m/s

    1. i also got this. (66300 kg(m/s)) / 83.6 kg = 7930.62 m/s, kilograms cancel.

    2. For number 4, is it 6.63 x 10^3? Because if it is, then I think you guys are off. I divided 6630 by 83.6 KG and got 79.3 m/s

    3. John, they saw 10^5 which is why the decimal is off

  3. for question four is it 10^3 or 10^5 it is to small for me to read

    1. I think 5, it just changes the answer a couple of decimal places

  4. Do we just take equations like p = MV and plug in numbers for each equation to solve

    1. yep, but sometimes mass was split into two separate things but it seems pretty basic

  5. is this all we're doing with momentum? it's so simple. . .seems too good to be true
