A 5-kg ball collides inelastically head-on with a 10-kg ball,which is initially stationary.Which of the following statements is true? (There could be more than one correct choice. )
A) The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is greater than that of the 10-kg ball.
B) The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball.
C) The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is equal to that of the 10-kg ball.
D) The magnitude of the change of the momentum of the 5-kg ball is equal to the magnitude of the change of momentum of the 10-kg ball.
E) Both balls lose all their momentum since the collision is inelastic.
