  • This is an event where two objects exchange impulse and momentum.
    Collision
  • Collision is categorized based on the change of what?
    total kinetic energy in the system
    • When forms of energy such as heat, sound, and light are produce
    • energy is spent to produce damage in the system
    The Kinetic energy during collision is what?
    Lost
  • What are the two types of Collision?
    elastic and inelastic collision
  • What is elastic collision?
    A conservation of momentum and kinetic energy
  • Elastic is a collision in which there is?
    no net loss in the kinetic energy of the system
  • What collision has energy that has not been lost?
    Perfectly elastic collision
  • What is inelastic collision?
    only momentum is conserved, kinetic energy is not
  • Inelastic is also a collision in which there is?
    a net loss in the kinetic energy of the system
