Like cars, lots of things happen: they can "bounce" off each other, they can 'smash' into pieces, or they can pass right by each other.
When two solids meet, they can either bounce off each other, stick together, or slide past each other, depending on the nature of the solids and the force of the impact. The way they interact is determined by factors such as the materials they are made of, their shapes, and the amount of energy involved in the collision.
I Think they put lots of mirrors and shone a light and timed how long it took to bounce off each mirror with a computer.
A solid has a definite shape and volume and the particles in a solid stay in the same position relative to each other. A liquid has a definite volume, but not a definite shape, and the particles in a liquid slide past and over each other. A gas has neither a definite shape nor volume but fills the entire container it is in. The particles in a gas move all around and bounce off each other and the walls of the container.
"Bounce off" means the same as "reflect" in this context.

Yes, Gas bounces off everything. Imagine it made of thousands of little pieces that bounce off each other and everything else
They Bounce off of each other and then they stop
Waves can exhibit both behaviors depending on the type of waves and the medium through which they are propagating. In some cases, waves can pass through each other without interacting (such as light waves), while in other cases, waves can bounce off each other or interact (such as sound waves).
repel or bounce off from one another...if it was high temperature and high presure the protons would fuse together
It is the second type of collision. And they may transfer momentum from one to the other.

Waves can interact in different ways depending on their type and properties. Some waves, like electromagnetic waves, can pass through each other without interacting. Other types of waves, like water waves, can reflect off each other when they collide.
In an inelastic collision, objects typically do not bounce off each other. Instead, they stick together after colliding. This results in a loss of kinetic energy as the objects deform and dissipate some of their energy as heat or sound.
Diffusion is the transfer of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration by random motion. When molecules bump into each other during this process, they can bounce off each other or exchange energy as they move around.
the gain of energy causes the molecules to vibrate and bounce off each other, causing them to become farther apart.
The Walls We Bounce Off Of was created in 1994.
