Confusion with non-head-on elastic collisions - Physics Forums
Homework Statement Two pucks of equal masses collide in a non-head-on collision. Puck 1 with a velocitiy u 1 = 2.50 m / s impacts puck 2 at rest, in a 28-degree angle. Assuming no friction between the pucks, find their final velocities.

Head on Collision with a car physics - Physics Forums
Most of us know intuitively that in a head-on collision between a large dump truck and a subcompact car, you are better off being in the truck than in the car. Why is this?

What is the true impact speed when two cars collide head-on at 50mph ...
It depends on what you want to compare it to. Two 50mph vehicles head on are equivalent to 100mph vehicle hitting a stationary vehicle. From that perspective, collision speed is 100mph. But if you want to compare to collision into solid wall, a 50mph collision will do the same damage as two identical 50mph vehicles head on.

Elastic Collision between billiard balls • Physics Forums
Homework Statement Two billiard balls of equal mass undergo a perfectly elastic head on collision. If one ball's initial speed was 2.00 m/s, and the...

Is it better to accelerate into a head on collision? - Physics Forums
If you were to be involved in a head on collision with an equally similar car, would it be best to slow down and brake, or accelerate into the car. This plays off the concept of two cars traveling 50 mph would have a combined force of 100 mph. This was dis-proven on mythbusters.

How many g's was I subjected to ? I should not have survived.
In a recent head-on collision, a fireman driving a 2011 Ford Fusion was traveling at 42 mph and experienced a backward motion of 4 mph during the crash. Despite the severity of the accident, which involved a significantly heavier vehicle, he survived with a concussion and memory loss. The event data recorder indicated that the crash likely subjected him to around 20 g's of force, although the ...

Two cars traveling toward each other question - Physics Forums
It specified a head-on collision, which I somehow overlooked. I stand by my opinion that T-boning a car is better than hitting it head-on, simply because it will crumple differently, but that wasn't part of the original question. My apologies if I misled anyone.

Understanding Head-On Collisions: Elastic vs. Inelastic & Impact of ...
Head-on collision HELP! Homework Statement Consider a head-on collision between two objects. Object 1, which has mass m1, is initially in motion, and collides head-on with object 2, which has mass m2, and is initially at rest. Which of the following statements about the collision are true...

Inelastic Head-On Collision: Understanding Momentum and Kinetic Energy
An "elastic collision" is one in which kinetic energy is conserved. A "perfectly inelastic" collision is one in which the two colliding objects stick together and move off as one object. Kinetic energy is not conserved. But just an "inelastic" collision can have kinetic energy after the collision anywhere from 0 up the initial total kinetic energy.

Car Crash Physics: Comparing Head-On Collisions & Relativity
I've been sitting here thinking about collisions, deceleration, and conservation of momentum, and I just want to see if I'm on the right track. For a start, let's say we crash a car into a solid, "unmovable" wall at 50 mph, and measure the results. If we then take two cars identical to that...
