We also talked about the differences between elastic and inelastic collisions, and how to calculate the center of mass of a system. Crash Course Physics is produced in association with PBS Digital ...

Segment 4C: Collisions In this segment, we differentiate between elastic and inelastic collisions. The conservation of momentum and the conservation of energy are explored as we do examples ...

Inelastic collisions occurring at the point of intersection cause changes in the quantum states of the NO molecules, which have specific velocities due to the conservation of energy and momentum.

CITYWIDE — There were fewer traffic collisions in 2013 than any year since 1995 — the earliest year for which the Daily Press was able to find data. Injuries from traffic accidents, however ...

After the inelastic collision, the spacecraft just totally sticks into the asteroid. The final velocity of the two objects will be v 2.

There were 11,913 traffic collisions reported in 2010, down from 11 percent in 2009. That continues a downward trend that's continued over the past decade.

Most collisions in a dilute quantum gas involve only two atoms, and when physicists were first studying Bose-Einstein condensates (the ultralow-temperature state of some atomic gases), they suppressed ...

Physicists recognize two distinct types of collisions: “elastic” and “inelastic.” They have technical definitions, but we won’t go too far wrong if we think of an elastic collision as ...
