Answer: Momentum is mass times velocity (P = m*v)

Explanation: Momentum is defined as the "amount of movement"

The momentum of an object moving can be calculated as:

P = m*v

where P is momentum

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object.

Notice that momentum has a given direction (the same of the velocity) so it is a vector.
