Abstract
Ehlers and Kundt have provided an approximate procedure to demonstrate that gravitational waves impart momentum to test particles. This was extended to cylindrical gravitational waves by Weber and Wheeler. Here a general, exact, formula for the momentum imparted to test particles in arbitrary spacetimes is presented.
