... On the downward parts of the trip, the gravitational force does positive work, increasing the car’s kinetic energy and ultimately increasing its “speed”. Conversely, on the upward parts of the motion, the gravitational force does negative work, decreasing the car’s kinetic energy as well as decreas ...

... Similarly the rate of change of momentum of ball B= m2(v2u2)/t. Let F12 be the force exerted by ball A on ball B and F21 be the force exerted by ball B on A. Then according to Newton’s second law of motion. [1] F21= m1(v1-u1)/t F12= m2(v2-u2)/t According to Newton’s 3rd law of motion F21= -F12 ...
