Question

How can you increase the momentum of an object?

(a) by decreasing its velocity
(b) by increasing its friction
(c) by increasing its mass
(d) by decreasing its acceleration

Answer 1

(C) by increasing its mass

Explanation: Mass and velocity are both directly proportional to the momentum. If you increase either mass or velocity, the momentum of the object increases proportionally. If you double the mass or velocity you double the momentum.

Answer 2

(c) by increasing it's mass
