the minivan, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia
C
the sports car, because it has less mass and therefore less inertia
D
the sports car, because it has more mass and therefore more inertia

It is greater if cart B has a greater mass.
B
It is the same if no external forces are added.
C
It depends on the masses of cart A and cart B.
D
It is less if cart B has a smaller mass.

Which graph best represents the momentum of both carts over time, before and after the collision?

A
Image with description A graph with momentum on the y axis measured in kilogram meters per second and time on the x axis measured in seconds. There are no values on the axes. There are two curves on the graph the first starts above the x axis and is horizontal before curving downward toward the x axis labeled 2 m cart. The second curve starts below the axis, a smaller distance below as the first one was above, and is horizontal before curving upward toward and crosses the x axis and is labeled m cart. Where they meet is labeled Collision. Both curves meet above the axis at the same time and both go horizontal above the x axis for a time period labeled Combined carts.

Which best describes the friction acting on the piano?

A
The static frictional force is greater than the kinetic frictional force, so the static frictional force is greater than 1200 N.
B
The static and kinetic frictional forces are equal, so the static frictional force is equal to 1200 N.
C
The kinetic frictional force is greater than the static frictional force, so the kinetic frictional force is greater than 1200 N.
D
The static and kinetic friction are both equal to the gravitational force of 2200 N.
