Recall that the momentum is given by

$p=m\cdot v$

Where m is the mass and v is the velocity.

$p=2\cdot8=16\;\;(kg\cdot m)/(s)$

So, the momentum of the object is 16 kg m/s.

Now, we need to equate this momentum to find the velocity of the other object.

$\begin{gathered} p=m\cdot v \\ 16=10\cdot v \\ v=(16)/(10) \\ v=1.6\;(m)/(s) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the object must be traveling at 1.6 m/s to have the same momentum as the other object.
