Answer:

The momentum of the soccer ball will be twice that of the baseball.

Step-by-step explanation:

If an object of mass
m travels with a velocity of
v, the momentum
p of that object will be
p = m\, v. Thus, if velocity is fixed, momentum will be portional to the mass of the object.

The mass of the soccer ball is twice that of the baseball:
(300 / 150) = 2. Thus, when moving at the same velocity, momentum of the soccer ball will be twice that of the baseball.
