Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Momentum of a body is the product of its mass and velocity with which it is moving. Momentum is a vector quantity.

Yes, momentum will be different in south and north direction since momentum has both magnitude and direction (vector quantity), and therefore, momentum of two cars moving in north direction will be positive and momentum of car moving in south direction will be negative.

Conclusion: Momentum will be different in south and north direction.
