Ok momentum is not KE, but one can calculate the amount of KE stopping the object and measureing how high it raised a weight, or now much frictional heat it generated. If momentum would be a different number, then how do you measure it?
What is momentum? KE will also travel in the same direction until a force is acted upon it, so what is the purpose of having a term called momentum?
