INCORRECT CHOICES ARE CROSSED OUT IN RED
Cart was stationary before the bullet hits and is embedded into the box \( \mathrm{B} \). There is friction between \( \mathrm{C} \) and \( \mathrm{B} \) but \( \mathrm{NOT} \) between \( \mathrm{C} \) and the ground (frozen ground) During collision of bullet with B, we can ignore friction and gravity During collision of bullet with B, we cannot ignore friction and gravity During the collision the linear momentum of the three masses (bullet, B and C) is not constant
After the collision, the bullet is inside B The friction between B and C does NOT do the same amount of work (with different signs) on B and C The friction between \( \mathrm{B} \) and \( \mathrm{C} \) does the same amount of work with different signs) on \( B \) and \( C \) The linear momentum of the three masses is constant throughtout ONLY if there is no friction between \( B \) and \( C \)
