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.

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.

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

The situation in which the momentum of a moving object would increase is:

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

When the opposing force is removed, the object can continue to accelerate in the direction of its motion, thus increasing its momentum.
