Homework Statement
The mass of the Earth is 5.972 x 10^24 kg and its orbital radius is an average of 1.496 x 10^11 m. Calculate its linear momentum.
Homework Equations
P=mv
The Attempt at a Solution
I am not sure how to start?
Given:
mass= 5.972*10^24 kg
Radius(to travel around sun): 1.496*10^11 m
To find:
Tangential velocity and then use the p=mv formula??
