Answer:

Final momentum after a head on collision is -2kgm/s

Explanation:

         One ball moves to the right and the other moves opposite  and momentum is a vector quantity so that considering the direction

Initial momenta are        P₁=2x3=6kgm/s        P₂=4x(-2)=-8kgm/s      

Final momentum is the vector sum of P(final)= 6-8= -2 kgm/s

Answer:

GE = ME - \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,  which agrees with option C in your list.

Explanation:

The definition of Mechanical Energy (ME) of a system is the addition of the gravitational potential energy (GE) plus the kinetic energy (KE) of the system:

ME = GE + KE

Given that the KE is: \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,

solving for GE in the formula above gives:

GE = ME - KE = ME - \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,  which agrees with option C
