<h2>The momentum is greater for 0.1 kg bullet traveling at 300 m/s</h2>

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
