In which situation would the momentum of a moving object increase?(1 point)

Two forces of equal magnitude act on the object in opposite directions.

A new force acts on the object, opposing the object’s motion.

A force acting in the direction of 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.

A force acting in the direction opposite the object’s motion is removed from the object.

Removing the opposing force gives a net force in the direction of motion (or reduces the net opposing force), producing a positive acceleration and thus increasing the object’s momentum (p = mv for constant mass).
