Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recall the formula for momentum, which is given by \(p = m \times v\), where \(p\) is momentum, \(m\) is mass, and \(v\) is velocity.
Since all objects are moving at the same speed, the velocity \(v\) is constant for all of them.
Because velocity is the same, the momentum of each object depends directly on its mass.
Compare the masses of the objects: baseball (0.15 kg), bicycle (15 kg), car (1500 kg), and truck (3000 kg).
The object with the greatest mass will have the greatest momentum, so identify the object with the largest mass to find which has the greatest momentum.
