If p=mv, when solving for m (mass) which is the correct equation?

• m=vp

• m=p/v

• m=v/p

• there is no correct way to solve

If p=mv, if solving for v (velocity) the equation would be

• v=vm

• v=m/p

• v=p/m

• v=p +m

The momentum of an object depends upon the object's ___________&_____________.

• size and shape

• mass and speed

• mass and veloctiy

• mass and energy
