- true or false: 1. during an explosion, the total kinetic energy is always conserved 2. An impulse always goes in the same direction as the applied force. 3. during an explosion of an object the sum of the momentum of all fragments is equal to the momentum of the object before the explosion 4. The momentum of a system is always conserved even if an external force acts on the system. 5. Momentum is a vector quantity during a perfectly inelastic collision between two masses the two masses rebound after the collision.arrow_forward1) A 100 g cart initially moving at +0.5 m/s collides elastically from a stationary 180 g cart. a) Using the equation in the theory, calculate the final velocity of the 100 g cart. b) Calculate the change in the momentum of the 100 g cart. c) Since this is an elastic collision, total momentum must be conserved.
