For the next minute, the vehicle's velocity was constant, then for the final minute, the vehicle decelerated uniformly to a stop on reaching the stadium.

If the total mass of the loaded taxi was 1 500 kg, determine the momentum of the vehicle when it is travelling at constant velocity.

The mark scheme is shown once you've answered.
