- - Momentum is (mass) x (speed).

Object B has 1.5 times as much momentum as Object A has.

- - Kinetic energy is (1/2) x (mass) x (speed).

Object B has 1.5 times as much kinetic energy as Object A has.

- - If they would both stop long enough to get on the scale,

Object B would weigh 1.5 times as much as Object A does.
