In 2016 there were 2,025 reported collisions between trains and cars that resulted in 265 fatalities. Explain the change in kinetic energy as it relates to conservation of momentum. A) The train doesn't experience any change in kinetic energy or momentum since its mass is much greater than the car. B) The car and train experience the same change in kinetic energy and the momentum of the system is the same before and after the collision. C) The car doesn't experience any change in kinetic energy or momentum, however, its direction of velocity is changed by the force of the collision. D) The car experiences a much greater change in kinetic energy after the collision, but the individual momentum of the car and train aren't changed by the collision.
