Question

Explain the conservation of linear momentum? ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

This law states that if no external forces act on the system of two colliding objects, then the vector sum of the linear momentum of each body remains constant and is not affected by their mutual interaction. ... Therefore, 'P' is constant or conserved.

Answer 2

conservation of linear momentum

law of conservation of linear momentum is independent of frame of reference to linear momentum depends on frame of reference

according to law of conservation of linear momentum: if the external force acts on a system of constant mass, the total momentum of the system remains constant.

if the total external force acting on a system is equal to zero then the final value of total momentum of the system is equal to the initial value of the total momentum of the system

$fexternal = \frac{dp}{dt}$

if f external = 0

then momentum is conserved this is known as law of conservation of momentum.

application of conservation of linear momentum

• firing a bullet from gun
• explosion of a bomb
• motion of two masses connected to a spring
• rocket propulsion
