Answer:
Momentum is defined as the product of its mass and velocity.
i.e. Momentum (P) = mass(m) x velocity(v).
Momentum is a measure of the quantity of motion of a body. It is a vector quantity. It has both direction and magnitude. and its direction is same as the direction of velocity. The SI unit of momentum is kg-m/s.
