When the 0.500kg ball collides with the stationary ball, momentum is conserved. Meaning, initial momentum = final momentum. Momentum of an object is = mass(m) x velocity (v). If two objects are in the system, then you have to add up both initial momentums and set them equal to the final momentums... So... m x v(initial, first object) + m x v(initial, second object) = final momentum. (0.500kg)(4.0m/s) + (1.0kg)(0m/s) = final momentum. So the final momentum equals 2.0kgm/s... D. 2.0 kgm/s
Classically momentum is the product of the mass and velocity of an object. In relativistic mechanics, in order to be conserved, the momentum of an object must be defined as p=γm0v where m0 is the invariant mass of the object and γ is the Lorentz factor, given by γ=1/(Sqrt(1-(v/c)2) where v is the speed of the object and c is the speed of light.
The law of conservation of momentum states that the energy lost initially by the first object is equal to that gained by the last object in an isolated system. This is the principle behind perpetual motion. The only difficulty is that it is difficult to find a truly isolated system.Ê

Impulse equals change in momentum. "Apex" The final momentum of any object (or collection of objects) must equal to its initial momentum plus any impulse imparted to the object (or collection of objects).

IN general change is defined as the difference of initial from the final. So change = Final - Initial. Hence change in momentum = Final momentum - initial momentum

When momentum is conserved, the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum.
Use this formula:Final momentum = (initial momentum) + (change in momentum)
law of conservation of momentum
After a collision,The initial momentum of a system is equal to final momentum. m1V1=m2V2
