Answer:
The momentum of the boat A is 10 kg.m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
velocity of the two boats, V = 1 m/s
mass of boat A, mₐ = 10 kg
mass of boat B, mb = 5 kg
Linear momentum is given by the product of mass and linear velocity.
The momentum of the boat A is given by;
Pₐ = mₐv
Pₐ = 10 x 1
Pₐ = 10 kg.m/s
Therefore, the momentum of the boat A is 10 kg.m/s.
