How can inconsideration cause a collision?

Inconsideration can cause a collision by leading to reckless or careless behavior, such as not checking blind spots before changing lanes or failing to yield the right of way. This can result in unexpected actions on the road that increase the likelihood of a collision occurring.


Why would a high-speed collision between 2 cars cause more damage than a low-speed collision between the same 2 cars?

During the high-speed collsision, the cars would cause more kinetic energy than with a low collision. It would cause damage because there is a greater amount of force exerted in the high-speed collision.


What distractions as you can that may cause a collision?

Distractions that may cause a collision include using a phone while driving, talking to passengers, eating or drinking, adjusting the radio or climate controls, daydreaming, and reaching for items inside the vehicle. All these distractions can take your focus away from the road and increase the risk of a collision.


The collision of two creates huge mountains?

When two tectonic plates collide, one plate is typically forced beneath the other in a process known as subduction. The force of this collision can cause the crust to fold and buckle, leading to the formation of large mountain ranges. An example of this is the Himalayas, which were formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates.


What factors do you think may cause there to be a difference between the momentum before and the momentum after the collision?

There is a Law of Conservation of Momentum, which states that total momentum is always conserved. In this case, that means that - assuming no additional bodies are involved - the total momentum before the collision will be the same as the total momentum after the collision. It doesn't even matter whether the collision is elastic or not.
