Question

earning Inc. Sapling Learning space her new spacxship. As she coasts along, a tiny spacebug drtts into her path and bounces off the window Below are several statements concerning this scenario. Evaluate each statement according to the law of momentum conservation, and place it appropriately. Must be true according to the law of Mustbe false according to the law of Not determined by the law of momentum conservation momentum conservation The total change in momentum llthe spacebug had stuck to the The initial momentum of the for this interaction is zero, spaceship instead of bouncing off, spaceship is equal to the momentum would not have been initial momentum of the spacebug conserved for this interaction. The change in the spacebug's The final momentum of the The total momentum of the momentum during the collision spaceship is less than Mre final spaceship and spacebu is greater than the change in the momentum of the spa bug the is spaceship's momentum. their total momentum afterward. previous 62 chark Answer In View about us careers partners privacy policy terms of use contact us help

Explanation / Answer

In the collision, momentum is always conserved.
Therefore, it must be true according to the Conservation of momentum.
Hence the first statement is correct.
