A force acting in the direction opposite the object’s motion is removed from the object.
Reason: Momentum changes only when there is a net force (dp/dt = F_net). Removing a force that opposes the motion produces (or increases) a net force in the direction of motion, so the object accelerates and its momentum increases.
