Question

Assuming that the collision b/n Object A & Object B occurs in an isolated system, which of the following statements are consistent w/ the law of conservation of momentum?


a) The change in Object A's momentum will be equal & opposite to the change in Object B's momentum.


b) Object A won't have its momentum altered during a collision


c) Object A's momentum before the collision is the same as it is after


d) Object A will have the same momentum as Object B before & after the collision


e) The total momentum of Objects A & B will be the same before & after the collision
f) None of these statements are consistent w/ momentum conservation

Answer 1

The momentum conservation law, is the statement you see in (e)
