Answer:
here is your answer
Explanation:
LINEAR MOMENTUM (p) is the product of mass and velocity
LAW OF CONSERVATION OF LINEAR MOMENTUM
States that if the net force acting on a body is 0 then linear momentum
fnet= change in momentum/time
0= change in momentum/time
since time can not be 0...
this means change in monentum is 0 which is only possible if linear momentums are equal ie linear momentum is constant
now
if two objects are colliding then there net force is not 0
....
but if we consider them as a whole i.e as a single system the net force is 0
there fore law of conservation of linear momentum is always true for collision of two balls
