Answer:

The trucks must have equal masses that is they must have same load.

Explanation:

Momentum refers to the product of the mass of the object and velocity.

As momentum has both magnitude and direction, it is a vector quantity.

In the given problem, it is given that after the collision, the trucks move at more than half the original speed of the moving truck. Therefore, the trucks must have equal masses that is they must have the same load.

Which best describes the surface of a concave mirror? It is flat. It is textured. It curves outward. It curves inward.
Sonja [21]

The concave mirror is a spherical-shaped mirror that has an inner curved surface. Hence, option (4) is correct.

What is a concave mirror?

The concave mirrors are spherical-shaped mirrors that are painted on the outward surface. It is also known as the converging mirror, having the recessed inner reflecting surface.

  • The concave mirrors are generally used for the purpose to focus the light. For that, they might have a reflecting surface, curved inwards, and the reflection of light is limited to the single focal point.
  • The reflecting surface of the concave mirror has its vertex or midpoint lying farther away from the objects than the edges.

Thus, we can conclude that the surface of the concave mirror is curved inward. Hence, option (4) is correct.
