1. Mass (m): The amount of matter in an object. A heavier object will have more momentum than a lighter object moving at the same speed.
2. Velocity (v): The speed and direction of an object. A faster object will have more momentum than a slower object of the same mass.
Formula for Momentum:
Momentum (p) = mass (m) x velocity (v)
Units of Momentum:
The standard unit for momentum is kilogram meters per second (kg m/s).
