Question

In which situation would the momentum of a moving object increase?(1 point) Responses A new force acts on the object, opposing the object’s motion. A new force acts on the object, opposing the object’s motion. A force acting in the direction opposite the object’s motion is removed from the object. A force acting in the direction opposite the object’s motion is removed from the object. Two forces of equal magnitude act on the object in opposite directions. Two forces of equal magnitude act on the object in opposite directions. A force acting in the direction of the object’s motion is removed from the object.

Answer 1

The momentum of a moving object would increase in the situation where "A force acting in the direction opposite the object’s motion is removed from the object."

When that opposing force is removed, the object would continue to move in the same direction and would accelerate, leading to an increase in its momentum.
