6. 
   momentum
   (p) Momentum is a property that measures the tendency of a moving object to keep moving in the same direction. Increasing the speed of an object increases its momentum, and a heavy object will have more momentum than a lighter one moving at the same speed. For a particle with mass m and velocity v, the momentum of the particle is mv.

    Momentum
    Definition (keystage 3) An object's velocity, multiplied by its mass. In physics, momentum is actually considered to be a more fundamental quantity than mass.<br /> Momentum has dimensions (mass x length)/time and SI unit Ns (Newton seconds).

    Momentum
    `The effect of motion is called momentum.` In classical mechanics, `momentum` (pl. momenta; SI unit kg m/s, or, equivalently, N÷s) is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. For more accurate measures of momentum, see the section `modern definitions of momentum` on this page. It is sometimes referred to as linear momentum to distinguish it from the related subject of angular momentum. Linear momentum is a vector quantity, since it has ...
