is oblique collision and 2d collision same?
Answers
Answer:
There are two types of collisions between two bodies - 1) Head-on collisions or one-dimensional collisions - collisions such that the direction of the force applied upon collision is aligned with respect to the line between the centers of mass, and 2) Non-head-on collisions, oblique collisions or two-dimensional ...
Answer:
Oblique Collision: It happens when any of the two bodies have velocity at an angle with the line of collision. In case of an oblique collision the component of velocity perpendicular to the line of collision remains unchanged.
Collisions in Two Dimensions. A collision in two dimensions obeys the same rules as a collision in one dimension: Total momentum in each direction is always the same before and after the collision. Total kinetic energy is the same before and after an elastic collision.
