Answer:
If the net external force acting on a system of bodies is zero, then the momentum of the system remains constant. This is the basic law of conservation of linear momentum

Explanation:
Two bodies of mass M and m are moving in opposite directions with the velocities v. If they collide and move together after the collision, we have to find the velocity of the system. Since there is no external force acting on the system of two bodies, momentum will be conserved.
eg: the motion of rockets is obeyed by the law of conservation of linear momentum..
