Respuesta :

im pretty sure its A i may be wrong

Answer:

A)  

A large truck has a much larger mass.

Explanation:

Since we know that momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity

so here we can say

[tex]P = mv[/tex]

so here more momentum will say that the product of mass and velocity will be more

so here as we compare the car and truck we can say that truck will have more momentum because the mass of the truck will always be greater than the mass of car

due to this huge difference in the mass of car and truck we can say that truck will always have more momentum than car.
