What is the momentum of an object?

Question

A. The velocity of the object
B. The rate of change in the velocity of an object
C. The net force acting on the object
D. The state of motion of an object with mass

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

D. The state of motion of an object with mass.

Momentum (usually denoted as p) is a vector quantity defined as the product of an object's mass (m) and its velocity (v), given by the formula p = mv. It describes the quantity of motion an object has due to its mass and velocity.
