When written as an equation, p = mv, where p stands for momentum, m for mass in kilograms, and v for speed in meters per second, we can see that this term refers to a relationship between an object's mass and velocity.
Momentum has both magnitude and direction because it is a vector quantity.
We have m=2000kg,v=7.50 ms1
Momentum p=mv=20007.5=15,000 kg.m.s1
