T/F: the law of conservation of momentum states: In the absence of an external force, the momentum of a system?

Karl Samiec: incorrect; the conservation of momentum states that in the absence of outside forces, the momentum of a system is constant (unchanged)I am not sure how b) and c) are different. If it is incorrect, there is some error in the statement. So not sure which choice I would make, but you know the conservation of momentum, which is the important thing....Show more

Tomeka Hameen: it continuously holds actual. Momentum, value and mass-potential are continuously conserved. except for sure you cheat and upload exterior aspects, yet then it would not be a closed gadget, and the definition ( which states that it really is in a closed gadget ) would nonetheless be valid, only no longer perfect. There are some circumstances that are style of 'gray section' so a hypothetical partial, the neutrino, is used to account for the lacking momentum.

Randa Hessell: Your anwser is correct. P=mv. Obviously if there is no change in velocity (supplied by external force), th! ere can be no change in momentum.

Hilton Paiva: You're right the answer is c

Aron Ramu: Technically, both B and C can be correct.In the absence of data that either states the momentum or that can be used to calculate the momentum, then the momentum would be undefined.It all depends on what information you are given about the system....Show more
