Choose the +x-direction to point to the right. •Object 1 has a mass 1.66 kg and is moving to the right at 11.2 m/s. •Object 2 has a mass 6.59 kg and is moving to the left at 10.4 m/s. •What is x-component of the total momentum of the system in kg m/s? •Assume 3 significant figures for your final answer.

M = 49.4kgm/s (towards the left)

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object

Momentum = mass * velocity

Momentum of Object 1 with mass 1.66 kg moving to the right at 11.2 m/s, is expressed as:

M1 = 1.66 * 11.2

M1 = 18.592kgm/s

Momentum of Object 2 with mass 6.59 kg moving to the left at 10.4 m/s is expressed as:

M2 = 6.59 * -10.4

M2 = -68.536kgm/s (negative since it is moving towards the left)

The total momentum will be the sum of momentum along the x-component as shown:

M = M1+M2

M = 18.592kgm/s--68.536kgm/s

M = -49.944kgm/s

M = 49.4kgm/s (towards the left)
