Which of these objects has the greatest momentum? Which has the least momentum?

a 6.0 kg bowling ball moving at 8.0 m/s
a 3.0 gram pellet fired at 250 m/s
a 2500 kg truck parked on a side street
a 60 kg student walking at 1.0 m/s

You can actually try plugging in all the numbers into the equation p=mv. By the look of the question the third option is already cancelled out as the velocity is zero making the momentum zero. Hope that helps!

Yes, you are correct! Also, when making comparisons, don't forget to change the 3grams to kgs.
