The linear momentum (p) of an object with mass m and speed v is given by:


p=mv

Replace m=3500kg and v=22.0m/s to find the linear momentum of the truck:


\begin{gathered} p=(3500\operatorname{kg})(22.0(m)/(s)) \\ =77,000\operatorname{kg}(m)/(s) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the linear momentum of the truck is 77,000 kg*m/s.
