Answer:
light object
Explanation:
momentum= mass × velocity
momentum of heavy object =momentum of light object
mass of heavy object is more than mass of light object
therefore, velocity of light object is more than that of heavy object

Answer:
The lighter object will be faster
Explanation:
We know that,
momentum=mass * velocity^2
Since there momentum is same thus if the object with a greater mass will have lesser velocity by the relation stated above and the object with a lighter mass will have greater velocity.
Hence, the lighter body is faster.
