Momentum is calculated using the formula:
\[
\text{Momentum} = \text{mass} \times \text{velocity}
\]
In this case, the mass of the bowling ball is 3 kg and its velocity is 3 m/s.
So, the momentum is:
\[
\text{Momentum} = 3 \, \text{kg} \times 3 \, \text{m/s} = 9 \, \text{kg} \cdot \text{m/s}
\]
Therefore, the momentum of the bowling ball is **9 kg • m/s**.
\[
