Answer:
The forces involved in a collision are equal in size and directed in the opposite direction, and they accelerate both objects. Each object accelerates equally in collisions with things of equal mass.
Explanation:
The branched structure isomer will require less energy to melt than the straight chain isomer
explanation
Branched structure isomer has weak intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to straight chain isomers. In addition the branched isomer has a low boiling point as compared to straight chain isomers. Since boiling require the of the intermolecular forces tend to have lower boiling point than straight chain
The energy would increase
b) increase kinetic energy
