explain " the law of conservation of momentum " with on example.
Answers
The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of any system of objects remains constant in the absence of any external force. According to the law of conservation of momentum, for a collision between two bodies.
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after the collision.
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
Example:-
When a shot is fired from a gun, the gun recoils. When the shot is fired, it leaves the barrel with a certain force. The outgoing shot causes a reaction on the gun. Thus an equal and opposite force acts on the gun and it recoils.

Hi ! This is your first question answer that car mass....Mark me as brainliest.....thank me follow me❤️
Let ,
mass = m
initial velocity = u
final velocity = v
here ,
m₁= 1500 kg
m₂=1000 kg
u₁ = 25 m/s
u₂ = 15 m/s
v₁ = 20 m/s
we have to find v₂ !!
v₂ is the velocity after collision
Here is a formula relating the values given ,
m₁u₁+m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂+v₂
m₁u₁+m₂u₂ = 1500 × 25 + 1000 ×15
= 37500 + 15000
= 52500
m₁v₁ + m₂+v₂ = 1500 × 20 + 1000 × v₂
= 30000 + 1000v₂
m₁u₁+m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂+v₂
52500 = 3000 + 1000v₂
1000v₂ = 52500 - 30000
1000 v₂ = 22500
v₂ = 22500/1000
= 22.5 m/s
Thus, velocity of car 'B' after collision is 22.5m/s.
