You are calculating the momentum of a 2 kg toy car moving along the sidewalk at a speed of 0.5 m/s. What would happen to the momentum if you doubled the mass of the car?

• You would double the momentum.

• You would triple the momentum.

• You would half the momentum.

• The momentum would not change.
