If you want to double the momentum of a particle by increasing its speed, what do you need to do? Well, you might say double the velocity. In classical physics (for low speeds), you would be right. But once we get to very high velocities, we know that relativity kicks in and things get a bit weird. So maybe it's not just doubling the velocity anymore? Let's sort this out.
