- ○ momentum
- ○ velocity
- ○ acceleration
Transcribed Image Text:**Question:** Which of the following is NOT a vector quantity? - ○ force - ○ impulse - ○ all of the given quantities are vectors - ○ displacement - ○ momentum - ○ velocity - ○ acceleration
**Problem Statement:**

A hockey puck (mass = 200 grams) is gliding on perfectly smooth (frictionless) ice at 10 m/s to the West. What is the momentum of the puck?

**Options:**

- ○ zero, since it is not changing speed
- ○ 20 \((\text{kg} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}})\) West
- ○ 2000 \((\text{kg} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}})\) West
- ○ 200 \((\text{kg} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}})\) West
- ○ 2 \((\text{kg} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}})\) West

**Explanation:**

To calculate the momentum (\( p \)) of the puck, use the formula:

\[ p = m \times v \]

where \( m \) is the mass in kilograms and \( v \) is the velocity in meters per second.

First, convert the mass from grams to kilograms:

\[ 200 \text{ g} = 0.2 \text{ kg} \]

Then, plug the values into the formula:

\[ p = 0.2 \text{ kg} \times 10 \text{ m/s} = 2 \text{ kg} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}} \]

Therefore, the correct answer is:

- ○ 2 \((\text{kg} \cdot \frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}})\) West
