Explanation :

The momentum of an object is defined as the product of its mass and the velocity with which it is moving.

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of a system remains conserved when the external force acting on it is equal to zero.

Mathematically, it can be written as :


p_i=p_f

where,


p_i and
p_f are the initial and the final momentum.

Hence, it is the required solution.
