Answer:
Work done by external force is given as

Explanation:
As per work energy Theorem we can say that work done by all force on the car is equal to change in kinetic energy of the car
so we will have

now we have


so from above equation

so from above equation work done by external force is given as

Options:
(a) Total kinetic energy of the system remains constant.
(b) Total momentum of the system is conserved.
(c) Both A and B are true.
(d) Neither A nor B are true.
Answer:
(b) Total momentum of the system is conserved.
Explanation:
An inelastic collision is a type of collision in which momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is not conserved. That is, there is loss of kinetic energy.
In an inelastic collision:
Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision
An example of inelastic collision is seen in the ballistic pendulum, The ballistic pendulum is a device in which a projectile such as a bullet is fired into a suspended heavy wooden stationary block.
