Solution

To find the mass of the semi, we need to use the formula for momentum, which is mass times velocity. In this case, we know the momentum (900,000 kg*m/s) and the velocity (30 m/s), and we need to find the mass.

The formula is:

Momentum = Mass * Velocity

We can rearrange the formula to solve for mass:

Mass = Momentum / Velocity

Substituting the given values:

Mass = 900,000 kg*m/s / 30 m/s

After performing the division, we find that the mass of the semi is 30,000 kg.
