Answer:

B) The speed is constant and velocity is changing.

Explanation:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the distance covered and the time taken. In this case, the speed is constant, and it is 110 km/h.

- Velocity is a vector quantity, which consists of a) a magnitude (which is the speed) and b) a direction. In this problem, the speed is constant, however the velocity is changing, because the direction of the car is changing at every moment (in fact, the track is a circle, so the direction is always changing).

Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)

Original momentum before the hit =

                   (0.16 kg) x (38 m/s) this way <==

               =             6.08 kg-m/s  this way <==

Momentum after the hit =

                   (0.16) x (44 m/s) that way  ==>

               =           7.04 kg-m/s  that way ==>

Change in momentum = (6.08 + 7.04) =  13.12 kg-m/s  that way ==> .
-----------------------------------------------

Change in momentum = impulse.

                                   Impulse = (force) x (time the force lasted)

                          13.12 kg-m/s  = (force) x (0.002 sec)

  (13.12 kg-m/s) / (0.002 sec)  =  Force

             6,560 kg-m/s² = 6,560 Newtons  =  Force
