Suppose you observe a collision of an isolated system of two particles. A friend observes the same collision in a reference frame moving in the $+x$ direction with respect to yours. According to the Galilean transformation equations, on which aspects of the collision will you agree with your friend? (Answer T or F.)
-(a) On the value of the system's total $x$-momentum

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Galilean transformation affects velocities, so the $x$-momentum, which depends on velocity, will differ between the two reference frames.
