Question

Choose the correct statement:
Statement 1: Momentum is the sum of mass and velocity.
Statement 2: Momentum is the product of mass and time.
Statement 3: Momentum is dependent on the time duration for which the force is applied.
Statement 4: Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

• A. All statements are correct
• B. Only statement 4 is correct
• C. Only Statements 2 is correct
• D. Statements 1, 2 and 3 are correct

Answer 1

The correct option is B Only statement 4 is correct

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of the object.
Momentum is mathematically expressed as: $p=m\times v$, where, $p$ is the momentum, $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ is the velocity of the object.
Therefore, only statement 4 is correct.
