Ans. The particle of mass collides head on with the particles of mass . The velocities of particles and before collision are and respectively. After collision their respective velocities are…
Ans: Let us consider two colliding bodies of masses and moving with velocity and before collision. Let and be their respective velocities after perfectly elastic collision. According to the principle…
Ans. Let us consider two particles of masses and travelling along the same straight line with velocities and respectively impinge on each other. Let and be their respective velocities after…
Ans. Fig.1 Let us consider, two particles of masses and travelling along the same straight line as shown in the fig.1. Let, and be their respective velocities before collision and…
Coefficient of restitution: Let us consider, and be the velocities of two colliding bodies immediately before impact along the line of impact, and be the velocities of that colliding bodies…
A collision may be direct or head-on and oblique. In a direct collision, the direction of motion of both the colliding particles or bodies is along the line of impact…
Advantages of studying the collision process of the centre of mass system or frame of reference: When the origin of the reference frame system is a rigidly fixed point to…
In order to study the collisions between two particles, we shall come across the centre of mass system or centre of mass frame of reference and laboratory system or laboratory…
Advantages of studying collision process: There are various types of forces and interactions in the nature. These forces and interactions act in both the macroscopic and microscopic levels. Therefore the…
If the final particles after collision is entirely different from the initial particles before collision, then this type of collision is known as reaction. The initial particles are known as…
