A car traveling 13 m/s to the north collides with a car traveling 19 m/s to the south. Each car has a mass of 1250 kg. If the system is defined as the two
cars, what is the change in momentum of the system due to the collision?
O A. 16,250 kg-m/s
O B. 0 kg•m/s
O C. 40,000 kg•m/s
D. 23,750 kg•m/s

The change in the momentum would be 16,250 kg-m/s due the slower speed colliding with the faster speed.

Explanation:

the focus of lesson 1 is newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. newton's first law of motion is often stated as. an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
