Solution

The correct options are
B Momentum
C Velocity
D Acceleration
Using Newton's second law, if the mass of the body ( $m$ ) and the net force ( $F$ ) acting on it is given, then it's acceleration ( $a$ ) can be calculated using $F = m a$ .
Once the acceleration of the body is determined, velocity of the body can be calculated using the equations of motion. Once the velocity is known, momentum ( $p = m v$ ) can be calculated.
