Answer:

The one satellite has all the momentum before they connect, and then afterwards they share it.

Explanation:

I took the test and I got it correct.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The one satellite has all the momentum before they connect, and then afterwards they share it. For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.
