In the SI system, what are the fundamental units of momentum?
A. kg² m s⁻¹
B. kg m² s⁻¹
C. kg m s⁻¹
D. kg m s⁻²

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Momentum (p) is defined as the product of mass (m) and velocity (v). p = m × v. The SI unit of mass is the kilogram (kg) and the SI unit of velocity is meters per second (m/s or m s⁻¹). Therefore, the SI unit of momentum is kg m/s or kg m s⁻¹.
