Answer:

Velocity is halved

Step-by-step explanation:

Momentum is contingent on mass and velocity. The quantity of motion in a body is called the momentum of the body.

Momentum = mass x velocity

Now, if mass does not change and momentum is reduced by half, it suggests that the velocity was reduced by half.

Velocity is directly related to momentum.
