Answer:

The momentum of the boat A is 10 kg.m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the two boats, V = 1 m/s

mass of boat A, mₐ = 10 kg

mass of boat B, mb = 5 kg

Linear momentum is given by the product of mass and linear velocity.

The momentum of the boat A is given by;

Pₐ = mₐv

Pₐ = 10 x 1

Pₐ = 10 kg.m/s

Therefore, the momentum of the boat A is 10 kg.m/s.
