the area bounded by the line and the axes of a velocity-time graph is equal to the displacement of an object during that particular time period
Thank you
Power = work/time = (Force times distance)/time
= (30N *10.0m)/5.00s = 300/5 = 60 Watts

Complete Question
A truck going 15 km/h has a head-on collision with a small car going 30 km/h. Which statement best describes the situation?
A. the truck has the greater change of momentum because it has the greater mass
B. the car has the greater change of momentum because it has the greater speed
C. neither the car nor the truck changes its momentum in the collision because momentum is conserved
D. they both have the same change in magnitude of momentum because momentum is conserved
E. none of the above is necessarily true
Answer:
D. They both have the same change in magnitude of momentum because momentum is conserved
Explanation:
In order to get a good understanding of the solution above we define some
concetps
Momentum
This is defines quantified motion and can be mathematically represented as
Momentum = Mass of the body × Velocity of the body
According to the Law of conservation of momentum states that when two particles collide together in a system that is being isolated that their total momentum before and after their collision is equal this means that the momentum lost by the truck would be the same as the momentum gained by the small car
