Formula of Elastic Collision
The Elastic Collision formula of momentum is given
Where,
- m1 is the mass of 1st body
- m2 is the mass of 2nd body
- u1 is the initial velocity of 1st body
- u2 is the initial velocity of the second body
- v1 is the final velocity of the first body
- v2 is the final velocity of the second body
It says “Momentum before the collision is equal to momentum after the collision.”
The Elastic Collision formula of kinetic energy is given by
The elastic collision formula is applied to calculate the mass or velocity of the elastic bodies.
