Answer
B
Momentum
The correct answer is B. Momentum.
Momentum is defined as the product of an object's mass and its velocity. Since velocity is a vector quantity (having both magnitude and direction), momentum is also a vector quantity.
In contrast:
- Kinetic energy (KE) is a scalar quantity, representing the energy of motion.
- Speed is a scalar quantity, representing the magnitude of velocity.
- Work is a scalar quantity, representing the energy transferred by a force.
