One example of a perfectly inelastic collision is when two objects stick together after colliding, such as two clay balls colliding and sticking. Another example is when a bullet hits and embeds itself into a wooden block, causing them to move together after the collision.

What is the difference between inelastic collision and perfectly inelastic collision?

In an inelastic collision kinetic energy is lost (generally through energy used to change an objects shape), but the two objects rebound off each other with the remaining kinetic energy. In a perfectly inelastic collision the two objects stick together after the collision.


What is the difference between inelastic and perfectly inelastic collisions?

In an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved and some energy is lost as heat or sound. In a perfectly inelastic collision, the objects stick together after colliding and move as one unit, with maximum energy loss.


How do you determine if a collision was elastic inelastic or perfectly inelastic?

just check momentum before and after and if they're the same then elastic if not then inelastic.


What is the value of coefficient of restitution for inelastic collision?

The coefficient of restitution for an inelastic collision is typically between 0 and 1, where 0 represents a perfectly inelastic collision (objects stick together after colliding) and 1 represents a perfectly elastic collision (objects bounce off each other without any loss of kinetic energy). In an inelastic collision, the kinetic energy is not conserved and part of it is transformed into other forms of energy, such as heat or sound.


What are the examples of perfectly inelastic demand?

as quantity is totally unresponsive of price, consumer has no alternative in perfectly inelastic demand, he will pay any price for it. examples are air, water, electricity etc.


Special cases of inelastic collision?

Special cases of inelastic collisions include perfectly inelastic collisions, where the two objects stick together after colliding, and partially inelastic collisions, where the objects deform and lose some kinetic energy after colliding. Additionally, explosions can be considered a special case of inelastic collisions, where objects separate and gain kinetic energy after the collision.


Why can an explosion be considered and inelastic collision in reverse?

In a normal perfectly inelastic collision, objects stick together, and there is damage done. Kinetic energy is not conserved, but momentum is. However, an explosion is a perfectly inelastic collision in reverse, because instead of having objects coming at each other and sticking together, the objects are already stuck together, and fly apart. The equation for this is [m1 v1 + m2 v2] = [m1 + m2]*v The damage done would be the chemical reaction involved. Atoms were at first stuck together, but there was a chemical reaction [aka "damage" because atoms were changed], and then the atoms fly apart. Thus, a perfectly inelastic collision in reverse. Be careful how you use the physics terms; it's not an inelastic collision [that's when objects impact then part].


If the elasticity equals 0 is demand perfectly elastic or perfectly inelastic?

it is perfectly inelastic


Is the demand for insulin perfectly inelastic?

No, the demand for insulin is not perfectly inelastic.


What happenes in an inelastic collision?

In inelastic collisions, there is a net loss of kinetic energy after the collision has occurred.
