* Momentum is defined as the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity.
* Uniform acceleration means the velocity of the object is changing at a constant rate.
Even though the velocity is changing, the object still has a velocity at any given point in time. Therefore, it has momentum.
Example:
Imagine a car accelerating from rest. Even though it's accelerating, it still has momentum as it picks up speed. The momentum will increase as the car's velocity increases.
Key Point: Momentum is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude (amount) and direction. So, the momentum of a body with uniform acceleration will change in both magnitude and direction as its velocity changes.
