    D. 200 kgm/s

    Explanation:

    Momentum is conserved.

    Initial momentum = final momentum

    (50 kg) (4 m/s) + (30 kg) (0 m/s) = final momentum

    200 kgm/s = final momentum

    D. 200 kgm/s

    Explanation:

    A blue train of mass 50 kg moves at 4 m/s toward a green train of 30 kg initially at rest. The trains collide. After the collision the green train moves with a speed of 3 m/s. Therefore, the final momentum of the blue and green train combined is 200 kgm/s.
