    It is a vector quantity

    Explanation:

    P=mv

    Momentum is a product of mass of an object and the objects velocity.

    Velocity is a derivative of displacement with respect to time.

    Displacement is the distance traveled in a certain direction.

    Momentum therefore contains the direction of velocity.
