Answer:

3000 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum, often denoted as p, is the product of mass and velocity defined by p=mv where m is mass and v is velocity.

The change in momentum is described by m(v_f-v_i) where f and i denote final and initial states respectively. As the lorry comes to a halt, its final speed is zero. By substituting the provided values, we find that

Change in momentum= 6000(0-0.5)=-3000 kg.m/s
