Hello,
I am new to forums so please excuse my post if it is in the wrong area.
I was wondering whether someone could help me out with understanding the physics involved in a minor car crash between 2 cars (both traveling at 5 mph).
*This is not homework etc, trying to understand a real life accident.
I have started to read up on some areas e.g. Mass of cars, Velocity and Kinetic Energy but need help sticking it all together - unless someone is willing to show me the calculations involved and work it out?(should be able to provide details required).
TIA for any information or pointers.
Kind Regards,
Rhys.
