Answer:

C. 6.0 kg·m/s

Explanation:

In our case, we are to solve for the momentum of a baseball towards the catcher. In momentum, we are dealing with the quantity of motion of the moving body.

For the formula, we will use:

p = mv

where

p     is the momentum, unit is in kg·m/s

m    is the mass, unit is in kg

v     is the speed of the body, unit is in m/s

For the given information

m = 0.15 kg

v = 40 m/s

p = ?

Solving the problem

Let us use the formula for momentum and then substitute the given information, we have:

p = mv

p = (0.15 kg)(40 m/s)

p = 6 kg·m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the baseball at 40 m/s towards the catcher is 6 kg·m/s.
