Inelastic collisions Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

explains what momentum is, derives the equations for momentum and provides brief examples of elastic and inelastic collisions. there is a small section on ballistic pendulum

The following lab work is found by GigaPhysics Lab. This involves the Conservation of Momentum, Coefficient of Restitution, and Elastic and Inelastic Collisions lab work. The lab work makes use of the virtual lab as an experiment to better understand concepts of Physics in regards to momentum.

IB-Physics-Core-Notes Topic 2 Mechanics 2.1 Kinematics 2.1.1 Define displacement, velocity, speed and acceleration. Displacement- Defined as the change in position of an object. Displacement is a quantity that has both direction and magnitude, it is a vector. Measured in metres. Speed- How far an object travels in a given time. Rate of change of distance (ms-1) Velocity- The vector version of speed. Tells us the magnitude of how fast an object is moving and the direction in wh...

‘Momentu Conservation of Momentum’ and Collisions. Elastic & Inelastic question & answers 2024

Included in these notes are the key definitions (e.g. momentum, work done) as well as the differences between vectors and scalars, conditions for forces to be in equilibrium, and the principle of moments. The centre of mass for a body is also defined. The constant acceleration equations (suvat) are given and the motion of a body in free fall is explored. Furthermore, the rules and assumptions for projectile motion are also given. In addition all 3 of Newton's laws of motion are explained as we...

Scalar quantities with only magnitude such as speed, distance, time and mass. Vector quantities with a magnitude and direction e.g. acceleration, force momentum and weight. A vector quantity can be represented as an arrow, the size representing the magnitude and the direction, the direction. Non-contact force the objects are physically separate e.g. magnetism/gravity/electrostatic. 3 non-contact forces magnetism gravity electrostatic Contact force objects are physically touching ...

Kinematics Equations Correct Answer Force of Gravity Between Two Objects Correct Answer Units of G = N∗m²/kg² Kinetic Friction Correct Answer Static Friction Correct Answer Uniform Circular Motion - Velocity Correct Answer Velocity vector is constantly changing and is tangential to the circle of motion Centripetal Acceleration Correct Answer The acceleration vector always points toward the center of the circle and constantly changes direction as the object moves. Centrip...

Displacement (Δx) -Net change in position -Measured in meters (m) Δx = x(f) - x(i) Velocity (v) -Speed and direction -Measured in meters per second (m/s) average v = Δx/t 00:11 01:23 Acceleration (a) -Rate of change of velocity w/ respect to time -Measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2) average a = Δv/t Speeding up vs. Slowing Down -Speeding up occurs when velocity and acceleration have the same sign -Slowing down occurs when velocity and accel...
