How acan theh momentum of a moving object be found?

Question

a. by multiplying its mass by its acceleration
b. by dividing is velocity by the time it travels
c. by multiplying its mass by its velocity
d. by dividing its change in distance traveled by the time it travels

Answer 1

The momentum of a moving object can be found by:

c. by multiplying its mass by its velocity.

Momentum (p) is defined mathematically as:

\[ p = m \times v \]

where \( m \) is the mass of the object and \( v \) is its velocity.
