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.


Why does the ball not bounce as high when its first dropped?

The answer lies in co-efficient of restitution. (COR) COR is the ratio of speeds before and after impact. Normally, it is expected that the ball should reflect off the surface with the same speed with which it strikes. However, this happens only in the case of elastic collisions. Elastic collisions are ideal collisions in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. COR=1. In this case, the ball bounces as high as the height from where it was thrown. In reality however, collisions are inelastic. COR<1. K.E is not conserved. Energy is lost in other forms like heat as a result of which the ball doesn't bounce as high.


Why would a high-speed collision between two cars cause more damage than a low-speed collision between two cars?

There is more kinetic energy involved in the case of a high-speed collision.


Explain why a high-speed collision might cause more damage to vehicles then a low- speed collision?

because the high speed collision has more energy that it is using when the damage is occuring love Shanika L. Jackson♥
