    The momentum is greater for 0.1 kg bullet traveling at 300 m/s

    Explanation:

    Momentum = Mass x Velocity.

    A 2500 kg truck moving at 0.01 m/s

    Momentum = Mass x Velocity

    Momentum = 2500 x 0.01 = 25 kgm/s

    A 0.1 kg bullet traveling at 300 m/s

    Momentum = Mass x Velocity

    Momentum = 0.1 x 300 = 30kgm/s

    Momentum of 0.1 kg bullet traveling at 300 m/s > Momentum of 2500 kg truck moving at 0.01 m/s.

    The momentum is greater for 0.1 kg bullet traveling at 300 m/s
