Which of the following is the mathematical representation of the law of conservation of total linear momentum? a) dP/dt = 0 b) dF/dt = 0 c) dP/dt = Finternal d) dF/dt = P
Added by Patrick S.
Step 1
This law states that if no external forces act on a system, the total linear momentum of the system remains constant. This means that the change in total linear momentum over time is zero when only internal forces are acting within the system. Show more…
