A body of mass 1 kg thrown with a velocity of

10\;\mathrm{m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}

at an angle of

{60^0}

with the horizontal. Its momentum at the highest point is

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

5\mathrm{\;kg\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}

Option D (

5\mathrm{\;kg\;m}{\mathrm{s}^{ - 1}}

) is correct because the momentum at the highest point is only due to the horizontal component of the initial velocity.
