What is momentum?

it refers to the quantity of motion that an object has.

What is dependent on the amount of momentum?

"how much //stuff// is moving and how fast the //stuff// is moving" velocity and mass. Doubling the mass = doubling the momentum. A //quadrupling// in velocity results in a //quadrupling// of the momentum.

What is the direction of momentu m?

It is the same direction as velocity. There is no momentum when at rest.
