1.2 Momentum
Momentum is the measure of motion contained in a body. It is measured by the product of mass and velocity of the body.
Its direction is same as that of the velocity of the body.
Mathematically, $$\overrightarrow p = m\overrightarrow v $$ where,
$\overrightarrow p $: Momentum of the body
$m$: Mass of the body
