A moving car has momentum. If it moves twice as fast what is it's momentum

Sagot :

as we know that P=mv .. where m is mass and v is velocity ..this relation shows that momentum has a direct relation with  these two quantities .. so when velocity is increased twice 
P' = mv 
P'=m2v
P' = 2 mv here mv is P so
P'=2P 
this shows that momentum will also be doubled by doubling the velocity :)
