That is only possible by an outside force - a force from outside the system. The type of force is not important, but it must come from the outside.

The total amount of momentum of a group of objects does not change unless outside forces act on the objects?
Momentum
The rule that in the absence of outside forces the total momentum of objects that interact does not change?
law of conservation of momentum
What is change in total momentum?
It's the mass of a object on its velocity (the velocity is a vector and as result of multiplication of a scalar (mass) on a vector (velocity) you get a vector (momentum). Intuitively, momentum is the property of a body which enables it to resist a force.
What is the Law of convesation of momentum?
That means that a quantity, called "momentum", can be defined, and that this quantity does not change over time. In any collision, for example, the momentum (which is defined as mass x velocity) of individual objects can change, but the total momentum does not change. Please note that since velocity is a vector quantity, momentum is also a vector quantity.
What is the relationship between momentum and law of conservation of momentum?
Well... the law of conservation of momentum states that "In a system consisting of bodies on which no outside forces are acting; the total momentum of the system remains the same."
What explains the total Amount of momementum in an isolated system is conserved?
Total momentum in an isolated system does not change. The law of physics. The law of conservation of momentum explains that momentum is neither lost of gained. That means that there is a quantity, called momentum, that is conserved.

What is it called when momentum can be transferred but the total momentum does not change?
conservation of momentum
Which type of force can change the total momentum of a closed system?
Any external force applied on the system. Type of force ? ; from collision with another system, from a gravity field, gravity force. Depending on the system, from other field forces like electromagnetic force.
When a toy truck collides into a toy car the momentum of the what is the same before and after the collision?
The total momentum of the system doesn't change. In this case, it refers to the momentum of the toy truck plus the momentum of the toy car.
When no outside forces act on asystem of objects what do the objects do?
If there are no outside forces acting on a system of particles the total momentum of the system will remain constant; i.e. the center of mass of the system will remain at rest or move at constant velocity.
