What is they have the same momentum?


300

A push or pull exerted on an object.

What is force?

400

Newton's law that is known as the law of inertia.

What is Newton's 3rd law of motion?

400

P = mv

What is momentum equation?

400

If a cue ball hits a 8 ball head on, the cue ball comes to a complete stop. The cue balls momentum will transfer to the 8 ball with some momentum lost. True or False?

What is false? The momentum will be conserved and the 8-ball will move in the same direction with the same momentum.
