Question

How can a person increase the momentum of an object?

A. by decreasing its velocity
B. by increasing its mass
C. by increasing its friction
D. by decreasing its acceleration

Answer 1

B. By increasing its mass

Step-by-step explanation:

Momentum of an object is directly proportional to its mass and velocity

Answer 2

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Classical momentum is defined to be the product of mass and velocity. Increasing the objects total mass or their velocity would also increase the momentum. The only applicable answer is B, increasing the mass of the object.
