    Simple conservation of momentum question

    thankyou all! i won't be able to think about this properly to see if i really understand it for a few days from now due to school and such... (i think it makes sense...probably won't :p) so basically expect my cries for help in a few days ! (please note that i will try hard to understand it...

    Simple conservation of momentum question

    we're going to use an elastic collision but i am at a loss as to how to do this...:( especially since the two objects are not likely to be in line with each other... are u able to explain how to come up with the final velocities a bit more in depth? that would be really cool if u could...:D...

    Simple conservation of momentum question

    my friend left school in year 10 so didn't do physics...but i stayed at school and did physics in year 11 and currently in year 12...hence he asked for my help... so my friend is completely lost :D but to me, what u just said makes sense... thankyou very much for that...i will tell you if i...

    Simple conservation of momentum question

    well...The question is for a friend who is doing a simple simulation/program thing. during the course of the simulation he has two objects traveling towards each other...and wants a way of figuring out what direction and speed the objects move in after they hit... so if it makes it...

    Simple conservation of momentum question

    hello i have a question... I have two objects going towards each other (in 2 dimensions) I know the mass, initial speed and direction... I want to know how to figure out what the final speed and direction of the two objects will be after a collision assuming there is not friction...

    What do i need to explain to show how an induction motor works?

    hi all (hopefully friendly) people... In my year 12 physics class, i have been given a report on AC induction motors to complete. Basically the requirement is the explain the physics behind it, how it works, why, etc Can someone give me a list of things that i should cover as i am...
