Problem

Cart X experiences a constant 4 N4\,\text N force for 0.30 s0.30\,\text s. Cart Y experiences a constant 2 N2\,\text N force for 0.60 s0.60\,\text s. Both carts have identical masses and are initially at rest. Identify which cart undergoes the greater change in momentum and justify your answer with a brief numerical comparison.
