During the first collsion between the ball and the floor
Select one:
a. Both horizontal and vertical momentum of the ball are conserved
b. The horizontal momentum of the ball decreases and the vertical momentum decreases
c. The horizontal momentum of the ball decreases and the vertical momentum remains the same
d. The horizontal momentum of the ball remains the same and the vertical momentum increases
e. The horizontal momentum of the ball remains the same and the vertical momentum decreases
Homework Equations
p=mv
The Attempt at a Solution
I know that vertical momentum of a ball decreases but I'm not sure if the horizontal momentum decreases or remains constant.
