Momentum to Velocity Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the velocity from momentum.
V = p / m
- Where V is the velocity (m/s)
- p is the momentum (kg*m/s)
- m is the mass (kg)
To calculate velocity from momentum, simply divide the moment by the mass of the moving object.
How to Calculate Velocity From Momentum?
Example Problem:
The following example outlines the steps and information needed to convert Momentum to Velocity.
First, determine the momentum. In this example, the momentum is found to be 425 kg*m/s.
Next, determine the mass. For this problem, the mass is found to be 30 kg.
Finally, calculate the velocity from momentum using the formula above:
V = p / m
V = 425 / 30
V = 14.166 m/s
