the correct answer.
statement best compares the momentum of a 5-kilogram fish swimming at a speed of 10 meters/second and a 2-kilogram fish sw
of 10 meters/second?
A. Neither fish has momentum.
C.
The 2-kilogram fish has more momentum.
The 5-kilogram fish has more momentum.
D. Both fish have the same momentum.



Answer :

The correct answer is: The 5-kilogram fish swimming at a speed of 10 meters/second has more momentum than the 2-kilogram fish swimming at the same speed. Here's why: 1. Momentum is calculated by multiplying an object's mass by its velocity. Momentum = mass x velocity. 2. In this case, the momentum of the 5-kilogram fish is 5 kg x 10 m/s = 50 kg*m/s. 3. The momentum of the 2-kilogram fish is 2 kg x 10 m/s = 20 kg*m/s. 4. Therefore, the 5-kilogram fish has more momentum (50 kg*m/s) compared to the 2-kilogram fish (20 kg*m/s) when they both swim at a speed of 10 meters/second.
