Question

One of the most powerful laws in physics is the law of conservation of momentum which can be stated as follows.
For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision. That is, the momentum lost by object 1 is equal to the momentum gained by object 2. A system of gun and a bullet is one of the best examples for conservation of momentum. Before firing the gun, both the gun and the bullet are at rest, so the total momentum of the system is zero. As the gun is fired, bullet shoots out of the gun and acquires momentum. To conserve momentum of the system, the gun recoils.
A bus and a car moving in a straight line in opposite directions, collide with each other. Read the following statements and choose the correct answer.
i. The bus will experience the greater force of impact.

ii. The car will experience the greater force of impact.

iii. Both experience the same force of impact.

iv. The force of impact will be more for car first and it reduces in short time.

Answer 1

Answer:

the car will experience the greater force of impact
