Chapter 8, Problem Q8.5DQ

A truck is accelerating as it speeds down the highway. One inertial frame of reference is attached to the ground with its origin at a fence post, A second frame of reference is attached to a police car that is traveling down the highway at constant velocity. Is the momentum of the truck the same in these two reference frames? Explain. Is the rate of change of the truck’s momentum the same in these two frames? Explain.
