Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B velocity
The momentum is given by mass times it's velocity, and it is a vector quantity with direction same as velocity. The question states momentum is mass times it's speed, which is incorrect since it gives a scalar value. Hence the statement is false and correct answer is B.
