Question

To solve the problem below, you must write a clear and convincing justification for accepting one of the possible answer chokes as the best or most appropriate and for rejecting each of the other choices as less appropriate. Your reasons for rejecting choices are just as important as your reasons for choosing the best answer. The graph shows the change in the velocity of an object with time in a situation in which momentum is conserved. Which of the following situations is most likely indicated by the graph? the velocity of a bullet striking a ballistic pendulum the velocity of a car colliding head on with another car of equal weight and velocity the velocity of a fixed stationary object being hit by a bullet the velocity of a swinging pendulum a ball rolling across a level floor

Explanation / Answer

Answer will be c

Here final velocity that is the velocity after collision is zero
So moving object must comes to rest after collision
This is possible in case of stationary object where bullet gets embedded in stationary object and comes to rest eventually
