उत्तर
(c) the total momentum of the ball and the earth is conserved
(d) the total energy of the ball and the earth remains the same
As the ball rebounds after hitting the floor, its velocity changes.
i.e. Velocity of ball before collision ≠ Velocity of ball after collision
Therefore, the momentum of the ball just after the collision is not same as that just before the collision.
The mechanical energy of the ball also changes during the collision.
However, the total momentum of the system (earth plus ball) and the total energy of the system remain conserved.

In a typical Indian Bugghi (a luxury cart drawn by horses), a wooden plate is fixed on the rear on which one person can sit. A bugghi of mass 200 kg is moving at a speed of 10 km/h. As it overtakes a school boy walking at a speed of 4 km/h, the boy sits on the wooden plate. If the mass of the boy is 25 kg, what will be the plate. If the mass of the boy is 25 kg, what will be the new velocity of the bugghi ?
Consider a head-on collision between two particles of masses m1 and m2. The initial speeds of the particles are u1 and u2 in the same direction. the collision starts at t = 0 and the particles interact for a time interval ∆t. During the collision, the speed of the first particle varies as \[v(t) = u_1 + \frac{t}{∆ t}( v_1 - u_1 )\]
