m=1800 kg has the greatest momentum
Explanation:
Linear momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity of a body. It is directly proportional to mass and velocity and is given by the expression
P=mv
where P denotes linear momentum,m denotes mass and v denotes velocity.
given that
velocity of both objects is v=5 m/s
Mass of the first object m=[tex]1.2\times 10 kg[/tex]
Mass of the second object m=1800 kg
velocity of both objects is same. The second object has higher mass than first.
When mass increases, momentum increases with it.
Thus the second object with m=1800 kg has higher momentum than first.
