Define momentum in terms of football.

The law of conservation of momentum basically means that energy is always conserved and never lost when a collision happens.

Using the formula p=mv ...
Player A would have a momentum of 220 N•S
Player B would have a momentum of 0 because he is not moving

After the collision, the total momentum is still 220 N•S because energy is never lost, but now player A is at 0 and player B took his momentum. Think about it this way, if you bumped into something that wasn’t moving, it would fall and you most likely wouldn’t keep moving.

Elastic collisions are where the objects bounce each other and in inelastic collisions they stick together. I don’t watch much football but if you do this should make sense.
If the players fall down together (they tackle each other and fall? I think) it should be inelastic.

Sorry if this was long and confusing but I really hope this helps! ☺️

Th statement represented above : In a solution, the solvent is present in the larger amount is definitely FALSE. I choose this answer as a correct one as it also could be a solutions of alcohol ot for example walter which means it's not so solid and liquid respectively. Hope it's clear! Regards!

im not gonna write a research paper but this is the really easy way write global warming talk about animals the polar ice caps and water levels then for what causes it burning fossil fuels and energy plants. then finish off with its awful and we should use solar or geothermic or wind or when the time comes fusion not fission fusion makes helium from hydrogen then burylliam from helium then oxygen and silicon so on so forth instead of fissions uranium,plutonium and thorium and with radioactive waste
