a train because it is harder to stop than the car.

Momentum is a measure of the force that a moving object has (due to its movement).It is in direct proportion to both the object's mass and velocity. This means a higher mass, or a higher velocity means a higher momentum.Momentum = mass * velocity (p = mv)The mass of a train is vastly more than that of a squirrel.Therefore the only time that a train would have less momentum is when it was not moving, compared to a squirrel that was moving. As soon as a train moves its momentum will be greater.(You can think of it this way: you could overcome the force of a moving squirrel with your hand, but there is no way you could stop a train this way no matter how slowly it was moving.)
No, the train has MUCH more mass and momentum is mass times speed.

momentum Further answer Momentum is the reason something keeps moving, it's not really what it's called. Motion or perpetual motion is more like the answer to the question.

The Roller-skate Momentum = (mass) multiplied by (speed) . Anything moving has more momentum than anything that's not moving. The thing that's not moving has zero speed, so it also has zero momentum.
The momentum of an object is the product of both the mass and velocity of the object. A train moving at ten miles per hour will have more momentum than a ball moving at ten miles per hour, because the train is much heavier and larger.

Yes. momentum is figured out by the formula p =mv momentum = mass (weight) x velocity The train would have a massive amount of mass and as you can see in the formula the car (mass) would not be anywhere close to the momentum of the train.
A parked semi truck has no momentum. A moving bicycle does. If both the bike and the truck are moving at the same speed in the same direction, the truck will have more because it has more mass.

skateboard.....if velocity is zero,then momentum is also zero.
