    Calculating Final Velocity with Inelastic Equations

    Ah okay, I've got it now. Thank you for you help, I believe in my equations I had the system of equations as V[SIZE="1"]2 = C[SIZE="1"]R(U[SIZE="1"]2-U[SIZE="1"]1) + V[SIZE="1"]1 Where the in the brackets the It is actually (U[SIZE="1"]1-U[SIZE="1"]2). Thanks

    Calculating Final Velocity with Inelastic Equations

    So how would I use this coefficient? And does it change or become altered if the masses of the objects is different? Ill try sub-ing it into a few equations and see if there's a viable solution. Thank you for you help. EDIT: I'm still having difficulties. After subbing that coefficient into the...

    Calculating Final Velocity with Inelastic Equations

    Oh and after reviewing the Guidelines, should this be in the "Homework" type of area (even though it isn't related to schoolwork)? If this is the wrong place, Ill move it as soon as I can figure out how.

    Calculating Final Velocity with Inelastic Equations

    Hey guys, I've been having a nasty problem in the construction of my physics engine, and it goes as follows. When I have the mass and initial velocity of two objects (and Ill assume its a head on collision to simplify matters), how would you calculate the final velocity of both objects, when...
