Question

if each of the following has a velocity of 10 m/s, which one will have the greatest momentum?
car
tennis ball
skateboard

Explanation:

Step1: Recall momentum formula

The formula for momentum is $p = mv$, where $p$ is momentum, $m$ is mass and $v$ is velocity. Given that $v = 10$ m/s for all, the object with the greatest mass will have the greatest momentum.

Step2: Compare masses

Among a car, a tennis - ball and a skateboard, a car has the largest mass.

Answer:

Car
