Here is the answer of the given question above. "The total angular momentum of an object changes when a net external force acts on the system." This statement is <span>"sometimes true. it depends on the forces point of application". The answer is option D.

Using the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2
Where m1 is mass of first object
m2 is mass of second object
u1 and u2 are initial velocities of object 1 and 2 respectively
v1 and v2 are final velocities of object 1 and 2 respectively
Here, they are moving as a system after collision. Thus they will posses same final velocity
m1u1 +m2u2=v(m1+m2)
Substituting values
600*4+0=v(600+400)
2400=v*1000
v=2.4 m/s
Now momentum of system
p=Mv
p=(600+400)*2.4
p=1000*2.4
Therefore p=2400 kg m/s
Hope this helps :)
I believe the answer is the second option.
W = mg
Weight on Earth = 50 x 9.8
= 490 N
Weight on Mars = 50 x 3.7
= 185 N
