The total momentum of the system doesn't change. In this case, it refers to the momentum of the toy truck plus the momentum of the toy car.

When a toy truck collides into a toy car. the momentum of what is the same after and before the collition?
The TOTAL momentum (of toy truck + toy car) will be the same, before and after the collision.
When a toy truck collides into a toy carthe momentum of what is the same before and after the collision?
The sum of the momentum of the two toys before the collision will be the same as the momentum of the two toys after the collision except for some losses due to heat dissipation and frictional losses.

When a toy truck collides into a toy car the momentum of is the same before and after the collision?
yes the momentum of it is the same because P initial = P final ALWAYS!
A quantity which is conserved in the collision of a car and a truck is?
Total momentum
500kg truck moving at 30 ms strikes a parked 300 kg carthey connect together and move forwardwhat is the speed of the car and the truk as they move forward after the collision?
This is a conservation of momentum problem. Total momentum after collision = total momentum before collision. truck momentum before is MV = 500 x 30 = 1500 kg m/s car momentum before is = 0 (car at rest) truck momentum after = MU = 500 x U Car momentum after = mU = 300 x U SO: 500U + 300U = 1500 + 0 800U = 1500 U = 1.875 m/s
When a toy truck collides into a toy car the momentum of is the same before and after the collision Truck or the Car?
Collisions in the normal setting of life on Earth are complicated. Moving objects lose energy to air friction. Momentum in many cases is transferred to the Earth, where it becomes invisible, because it is such a tiny fraction of the Earth's total momentum. A toy truck and a toy car could collide in such a way that they both stop moving, but that does not mean that momentum has disappeared; it means that since they were moving in opposite directions in the first place, the algebraic sum of their momentum was zero in the first place. In outer space, you could see a simpler example of how momentum is transferred from one moving object to another, and how it is conserved. Momentum is always conserved, but often in such a complicated way that it is not easily perceived.
What is the momentum of a 500 kg truck before it strikes a 300 kg parked car?
Momentum defined as p=mv.. The momentum of the truck depends on its velocity
A construction truck collides with the back of a subcompact car Which one has the larger change of velocity during the collision?
The smaller vehicle will encounter the larger velocity change.
Which law of motion is applicable to a moving car that makes it likely that it will be damaged when it collides with a truck?
The principle that might apply here is momentum. Momentum is mass times velocity. What should be pointed out is that velocity is speed that has a direction vector. (If the car is moving ahead in a straight line it is traveling at "x" miles per hour "forward".) The car is moving forward and comes into contact with the truck. That seems to be where the question is looking. The mass of the car times its velocity is its momentum, and this represents the energy that it is carrying into the collision. This energy will have end up being distributed among the various parts and components of the car and the truck that are compressed, deformed and/or broken by the collision. The amount of damage will be proportional to the momentum. The more the momentum (the more the "forward" energy) of the car, the more compression, deformation and breakage there will be.

When a truck collides with van van moves backwards and truck forwards why?
The truck is heavier
