a bowling ball has a mass of 6 kg. What happens to its momentum when its speed increases from 2 m/s to 4 m/s?

AThe initial momentum is 6 kgm/s, and the final momentum is 3 kgm/s

BThe initial momentum is 12 kgm/s, and the final momentum is 24 kgm/s

CThe initial momentum is 12 kgm/s, and the final momentum is 3 kgm/s

DThe inital momentum is 6 kgm/s, and the final momentum is 12 kgm/s

B.)  Linear momentum = mass x velocity. Initial momentum = mass x initial velocity = 6x2 =12 kg-m/s. Final linear momentum = mass x final velocity = 6x4 = 24 kg-m/s. Hence option B is correct.
