The correct answer is P/m.

Key Points

  • Momentum refers to the quantity of motion that an object has.
    • If an object is in motion (on the move) then it has momentum. Momentum can be defined as "mass in motion."
    • All objects have mass.
  • So if an object is moving, then it has momentum - it has its mass in motion.
    • p = mv
    • So \(v = {p\over{m}}\)
      • p = momentum
      • m = mass
      • v = velocity
