Question
two bumper cars move toward each other. the cars hit and bounce off of each other. the momentum before the collision will be equal to the after.
Brief Explanations
According to the law of conservation of momentum, in an isolated - system (like the bumper - car collision assuming no external forces), the total momentum before a collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision. Force, impulse, and velocity do not have this direct conservation relationship in the context of the question.
