f) II and IV
g) III only

Respuesta :

Answer:

(IV) The direction of motion of each object is the same.      

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by :

p = m v

m is the mass of an object

v is the velocity of an object

It is given that two objects have the same momentum such that,

[tex]p_1=p_2[/tex]

[tex]m_1v_1=m_2v_2[/tex]

From above equation,

Mass, speed and velocity of both objects must not same but the direction of motion of each object is the same. Hence, the correct option is (b).
