    I agree the question was confusing and made it seem like a more complex problem.
    Like I said, they aren't only testing your math and physics skills, they are testing your analytical skills as well. :)

    When you look at the unit that you're supposed to get, N, and the parameters you were given (mass [kg], velocity [m/s]), you should have made the conclusion that you were missing time . N = kg*m/s^2. That leads you to the 1000 rounds per minute (1/60s). I didn't get it at first read but then again, you're supposed to read the test question more than once anyways to make sure you aren't answering to something totally different.
