If two objects of unequal mass collide, both objects will continue to move in the direction of
a.
the smaller object's momentum
b.
the larger object's momentum
c.
the smaller object's resistance
d.
the larger object's resistance

B. the larger object's momentum

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum, in an isolated system, when two bodies collide, the total momentum is reserved.

This means that:

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁+m₂)v

where:

m₁ is mass of first body and v₁ is velocity of first body

m₂ is mass of second body and v₂ is velocity of second body

v is the total velocity of the two bodies after collision

Now, based on the above equation, we can note that when:

1- masses are unequal

2- first body (assumed heavier, thus having larger momentum) has a velocity in positive direction

3- second body (assumed lighter, thus having less momentum) has velocity in negative direction

The final direction of the velocity will be positive which the same as the body with larger momentum

Hope this helps :)

explanation:

a fuel engine ( known as a gasoline engine in american english )is an internal combustion engine with spark ignition, designed to run on petrol (gasoline) and similar volatile fuels.

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy

hope that                                         : )
