Elastic and Inelastic Collisons

Content Provider AK Lectures
Description During the moment of collision, both objects experience a slight deformation as a result of the force that acts on either object. There are two types of collisions that we should consider: elastic and inelastic collisions. During elastic collisions, such as a collision between two or more subatomic particles, the total kinetic energy and momentum of the system of objects is conserved. This implies that the sum of the kinetic energies of the objects before the collision is equal to the sum of the kinetic energies of the objects following the elastic collision. Likewise, the sum of the momentum of the objects before the collision is equal to the sum of the momentum after the collision takes place. For any elastic collision, we have a system of two equations which means we can use them to solve for any two unknowns. An inelastic collision is a collision between objects in which some of the kinetic energy is transformed into some other form of energy, such as thermal energy or electromagnetic radiation such as sound or light waves. Most of the collisions that take place on a macroscopic level are to some extent inelastic because they always transform kinetic energy to some other form of energy. For example, two billiard balls striking one another are usually considered to be elastic even though sound waves are produced. This implies that kinetic energy is not conserved in inelastic collisions. However the momentum of the object is still conserved so we can use this equation to solve for one unknown.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
