PHY221 Ch13: Collisions, Impulse and Ref. Frames • Recall main points: • Speed relation for elastic collisions. Helps solve some problems: • Definition of impulse and average force on one of the objects during any collision: • General expression for Kinetic energy: • Discussion and examples • Nothing special
PHY221 Ch13: Collisions, Impulse and Ref. Frames Main Points Proof: relative speed remains the same before /after collision:
PHY221 Ch13: Collisions, Impulse and Ref. Frames Main Points • Impulse definition and expression in terms of average force on object during collision
PHY221 Ch13: Collisions, Impulse and Ref. Frames Main Points • Proof: Kinetic Energy expression: • (F=lab for instance) Prelim #1: Prelim #2 for any mass mi : Now we compute
