Answer:

0.8 kilogram


Explanation:


Mass: This can be defined as the quantity of matter a body contained. The S.I unit of mass if kg.


From the question,


M = mv................. Equation 1


Where M = momentum, m = mass. V = velocity


make m the subject of the equation


m = M/v.............. Equation 2


Given: M = 8.0 kilogram meters/second, v = 10 meters/second


Substitute these values into equation 2


m = 8.0/10


m = 0.8 kilogram
