four football players are running down the field at the same speed. player 1 weighs 180lbs and is running toward the south goal, player 2 weighs 200lbs and is running toward the north goal, player 3 weighs 190lbs and is running toward the north goal, and player 4 weighs 165lbs and is running toward the south goal. which player has the most momentum?
answer asap. in advance.

Player-2 has the most momentum.

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as quantity of an motion in an object. It is calculated by multiplying mass of an object with its velocity.

Momentum(P) = Mass(m) × Velocity(v)

Players are running down the field at the same speed but in different directions.

Mass of player 1 =

Velocity of the player 1 running towards south goal=

Momentum of player 1 =

Mass of player 2 =

Velocity of the player 2 running towards north goal=

Momentum of player 2 =

Mass of player 3 =

Velocity of the player 3 running towards north goal=

Momentum of player 3 =

Mass of player 4 =

Velocity of the player 4 running towards south goal=

Momentum of player 4 =

Since, the velocity of all the players are equal the momentum of the player will depend upon their respective mass. Higher the mass of the player more will be momentum of the player.

In given case. the mass of player is highest which means that player 2 will have the most of the momentum.
