Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by :

[tex]p=m\times v[/tex]............(1)

m is the mas of the object

v is the speed of the object

According to question, arrow's mass is doubled and the speed is halved. So,

m' = 2m

v' = v/2

The new momentum becomes :

[tex]p'=2m\times \dfrac{v}{2}[/tex]

p' = mv

p' = p

So, the momentum remains the same. The momentum is changed by a factor of 1. Hence, this is the required solution.
