A small car traveling with 5,000 kgm/s hits a light truck that was at rest at a red light. After the collision the small car bounces backwards with a momentum of 3,000 kgm/s. What would the momentum of the truck be after the collision?

Respuesta :

Answer:

8000

Explanation:

cause in the problem we dont have any ext Forces we know that the momentum of system is constant.

Fext=0

P1 + P2 = P1' + P2'

P2 = 0

5000 = -3000 + P2'

P2' = 5000+3000 = 8000
