Answer:
Jenny and Betty both accelerated in the opposite direction.
Step-by-step explanation:
During the collision, both Jenny and Betty begin moving (they both accelerate.)
According to Newton's second law, an object will accelerate if the net force on the object is not zero (0.)
This means that Jenny's and Betty's cars both exerted a force on each other (equal and opposite.)
These two (2) forces are opposite in direction and equal in size.
Instantly after the collision, Jenny accelerates northward and Betty southward (before coming to a stop.)
Therefore, we can conclude that Jenny and Betty both accelerated in the opposite direction (of their original direction which were south for Jenny and north for Betty.)
