Solution

The correct option is C Only Statement 2 and 4 are correct

Momentum P is the product of mass M and velocity V.

P=MV

Momentum is the measure of the impact an object will experience in case of a collision. I.e. If two objects are moving at the same speed then the object with the higher mass will cause a greater impact.

In a frictionless environment, application of force changes its velocity. I.e. the body accelerates.
