As learnt in

Linear Momentum -

Quantity of motion in a body

\overrightarrow{P}=M\times\vec V

M= Mass and V= velocity

\overrightarrow{P}= Linear Momentum

- wherein

\ast Vector Quantity

\ast Same as that of velocity

Unit- Kg m/sec (S.I)

 

 \underset{\Delta P}{\rightarrow} = f.\Delta f \Rightarrow \Delta P=10 \times 10 = 100 kgms-1
