A car and a lorry are travelling with same velocity on a straight horizontal road. Which of the two has got greater momentum?
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To determine which of the two, a car or a lorry, has greater momentum when both are traveling at the same velocity, we can follow these steps:
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Understand the Concept of Momentum**:
Momentum (p) is defined as the product of an object's mass (m) and its velocity (v). The formula for momentum is:
\[
p = m \times v
