Beakman explains momentum and states the formula. He demonstrates momentum by rolling a bowling ball and a baseball down the same ramp so they have the same velocity. Their momentum is measured by liquid in a bag raising up on a scale. If the baseball has increased velocity, then this can increase the momentum.
