    Answer: m= 38 kg

    Explanation: To solve for the mass of the canoe we will use the formula of momentum which is p= mv. Derive for m, so the formula will become m = p/ v.

    m = p/v

    = 83.6 kg.m/s / 2.2 m/s

    = 38 kg

    Cancel out the units of m/s and the remaining unit will be in kg.
