The slowest impactors travel at 20 km/sec (45,000 mph); the fastest travel at over 72 km/sec (160,000 mph). At such speeds even a small meteoroid has incredible energy -- one with a mass of only 5 kg (10 lbs) can excavate a crater over 9 meters (30 ft) across, hurling 75 metric tons (165,000 lbs) of lunar regolith and rock on ballistic trajectories above the lunar surface.
