Question

State true or false.
Change in momentum occurs in the direction of force​

Answer 1

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the force applied, and this change in momentum takes place in the direction of the applied force. A force acting on a system affects its momentum.

Answer 2

The statement is True.

• The given statement is True as per Newton's second law.
• The total rate of conversion in the momentum of an object is exactly proportional to the force exercised, according to the law.
• This change in considerable momentum naturally occurs in the specific direction of the applied force. The momentum of a system is undoubtedly affected by a force typically operating on it.
