The momentum of an object is defined as the object's:

• force time the time interval
• mass times its acceleration
• mass times its velocity
• velocity times the time interval

The change in the momentum of an object is equal to:

• the impulse acting on the object
• the change in the object's velocity
• the force acting on the object
• the force on the object times the time interval

Which of the following has the largest momentum?

• A large truck parked in a parking lot
• A dog running down the street
• A pickup truck traveling down the highway
• An old lady crossing the street

A 4-kg ball has a momentum of 20 kg m/s. What is the ball's speed?

• 0.2 m/s
• 5 m/s
• 20 m/s
• 80 m/s
