What are the two types of major collisions:
Inelastic Collisions
Elastic Collisions
What are the conserved quantities of an Inelastic Collision?
Momentum, mass, energy
What is Inelastic Collisions?
When the momentum is conserved, since this is a collision, which means the interaction occurs rapidly enough to neglect external forces
What is perfectly Inelastic Collision?
Particles are connected after the collision
Particles move at the same velocity after the collision
Maximum kinetic energy is lost during a collision
Also called completely or totally Inelastic Collision
What is conserved in an Inelastic Collision?
Momentum
What is true about a completely inelastic collision?
Max kinetic energy is lost during a collision
Momentum is conserved
The colliding objects are connected after the collision
The colliding objects have the same velocity after the collision
Which of the following is true for an explosion?
A complete inelastic collision occurring in reverse
Momentum is conserved
The exploding particles have the same velocity before the collision
In this example of an inelastic collision, the total kinetic energy before and after the collision remained constant as expected.
False
