According to Newton's 3rd Law, an object's momentum depends on it's velocity and mass. 4 dog-sled teams competed to see who could gain the greatest momentum. All 4 sled and driver teams were the same mass, but each driver had to select a passenger to carry as part of the challenge. Each passenger was a different mass.

Which sled team had the greatest momentum at the finish line?

A) Sled Team A 48 kg moving at 10m/s

B) Sled Team B 14 kg moving at 18m/s

C) Sled Team C 28 kg moving at 12m/s

D) Sled Team D 22 kg moving at 12m/s
