When bumper cars collide, they will bounce apart with equal force.

When bumper cars collide, one car will transfer its force to the other, and then they will bounce

apart with equal force.

apart with an equal and opposite force.

apart in opposite directions.

The correct answer is: When bumper cars collide, they will bounce apart with equal force.

Explanation: According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When two bumper cars collide, the force exerted by one car on the other is matched by an equal and opposite force exerted by the other car. This means that both cars experience the same magnitude of force in opposite directions, causing them to bounce apart with equal force. This is why bumper cars are often used as an example of Newton's Third Law of Motion.
