Science Physics Inelastic collision What is an elastic collision?Question:What is an elastic collision?Collision:Whenever two moving objects exert force on each other for a small interval of time, the event is termed as collision. For example, the motion of billiard balls or two vehicles traveli...
In an inelastic collision the following quantities are conserved: a. Neither linear momentum nor kinetic energy. b. Both the total linear momentum and kinetic energy. c. The total kinetic energy only. d. The total linear momentum only.
If a 400 g ball moving 1.2 m s north, receives an impulse that changes its direction and speed to 2.8 m s east, what is the change of momentum? A 4.00 kg ball is moving at 2.00 m/s to the west and a 6.00 kg...
before the collision, right after the collision, and then once the whale-boat slides to a stop. from right before to right after the collision, momentum is conserved. you can use this to get an expression of the velocity of the boat-whale after the collision. now consider the sliding ...
Energy is always conserved.It is an inelastic collision but not a perfect one otherwise momentum would not be conserved.With perfectly inelastic collisions the momentum before is zero. Mar 8, 2009 #5 makeAwish 128 0 Hmm.. But how u noe momentum is conserved? Cos a ...
We know that energy is conserved, i.e., it cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be converted from one form to another. In these two cases, the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy because while it is not actually doing work, it has the potential to do work. If we...
What is the theory of spacetime and black holes? Which is a postulate of the kinetic-molecular theory? What is entanglement in quantum physics? What is particle theory in an easy definition? What does the Kinetic Theory state? What is conserved in photon electron collision? What is quantum ...
What is Bernoulli's equation? What is a conserved quantity in an explosion? What is damping and what factors does it depend on? What is len's maker equation? What is displacement? What do you understand by displacement equation? What is the equation: x = x_0+v_{0t}+\frac{1}{2}at...
In terms of conservation of total energy, what happens to the lost kinetic energy? What happens to KE in an inelastic collision? It is not conserved. Does that mean it is lost? If energy is neither created, nor destroyed, how can KE be just lost? If the kinetic energy of ...
What is the unit used for momentum? Explain the change in the momentum equation. How can you calculate the change in momentum of an object? What does it mean to say that momentum (or any quantity) is conserved? What is the total momentum of the system after collision? What is the total...
