Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. The equation is m=mv. The units for momentum is N*s or kg*m/s. They use it to describe how objects move. Ex: A football player has alot of momentum. The satellite is moving at a slower momentum.

If you multiply your velocity and mass, you'll get your momentum.
THe unit is N*s. It can be use in life when a soccer player is moving.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. The equation is m=mv. I don't know what the units for momentum are. An example is a car has a lot of momentum when it's moving down a hill because hit has all of that mass that keeps on pushing it.

Momentum is the product or mass and velocity. Momentum is measured in Newtons times seconds. The equation for momentum is m=mv.
