the energy transfers from the moving thing to the stand still. The energy balance depends on whether the collision is elastic or not. If the objects involved are all elastic, ie not deformed permanently, there is no loss of energy. The easiest visualization is of a snooker or pool table, where the balls are elastic, the velocities before and after the collision are entirely predictable. However if the objects are deformed, energy is absorbed. A good case is cars colliding where they are designed to crumple to an extent, this makes the subsequent behaviour more difficult to calculate.
What else can I help you with?
What happens when two light elements collide to undergo nuclear fusion?
When two light elements collide to undergo nuclear fusion, they combine to form a heavier element and release a large amount of energy in the process. This is the same process that powers the sun and other stars.
What transfers heat energy between particles as they collide within a substance or between two objects in contact?
You seem to have answered your own question-it is the collisions that transfer energy
What happens if two molecules traveling at the same speed collide head on?
If two molecules traveling at the same speed collide head on, they will exchange energy and momentum. This can result in the molecules bouncing off each other in opposite directions or sticking together to form a new molecule. The outcome depends on the specific properties and interactions of the molecules involved.
How can you use collide in a sentence?
LHC will collide protons into protons at a center of mass energy of about 14 TeV
What happens when two objects collide?
When two objects collide, they exert forces on each other that can cause changes in their motion, such as changes in speed or direction. The impact of the collision depends on factors like the mass and velocity of the objects involved.
What happens when two balls collide?
When two balls collide, energy is transferred into sound and deformation, but momentum remains the same. The mass times velocity of the balls is constant.
What is the interpretation of sound in sound engineering?
it is when two things collide and that is what causes interpretation energy
What happens when photons collide?
when two photons collide:- 1.a new photon gets formed 2.its direction will be different from that of the two photons. 3.the energy of the photon will remain the same
What happens when two contients collide?
Earthquakes and mountain building.
What happens when two continental places collide?
mountains are formed
What happens when two suns collide?
a big explosion occors
What is the meaning of collide?
Collide means to put two things together as in a car crash. A collision
What happens when two light elements collide to undergo nuclear fusion?
When two light elements collide to undergo nuclear fusion, they combine to form a heavier element and release a large amount of energy in the process. This is the same process that powers the sun and other stars.
What happens when two of the Earth's plates collide and one is forced underneath the other?
a earth quake happens
What happens when two plates move each other?
they collide and create earthquake
What is the first thing that must occur for two molecules to react with one another?
The two molecules must collide with the correct orientation and with a minimum amount of energy (called the activation energy).
What happens when two plates moved towards each other?
they collide and create earthquake
