Suppose we define a quantity Linear Momentum as linear momentum =mass x speed. The linear momentum of a system of particles is the sum of linear momentum of the individual particles. Can we state a principle of conservation of linear momentum as linear momentum of a system remains constant if no external force acts on it?

Assertion : Resultant force is equal to the vector sum of all the forces. Reason : A system cannot be brought to equilibrium by applying another force.
