Answer:
Decrease the mass.
Explanation:
By Newton's Second Law we know that net force exerted on a given system equals the rate of change of linear momentum ([tex]P[/tex]) in time.
[tex]F = \frac{dP}{dt}[/tex] (Eq. 1)
When mass of the system has a constant mass, this net force ([tex]F[/tex]) is reduced to its mass ([tex]m[/tex]) multiplied by acceleration ([tex]a[/tex]):
[tex]F = m\cdot a[/tex] (Eq. 2)
If we keep net force exerted on system constant, then a decrease on mass is compensated by an increase in acceleration. Hence, correct answer is: Decrease the mass.
