QUESTION :
Develop a theory of one dimensional elastic collision ?​

Answer 1

What are Collision?

Collision means two objects coming into contact with each other for a very short period. In other words, collision is a reciprocative interaction between two masses for a very short interval wherein the momentum and energy of the colliding masses changes. While playing carroms, you might have noticed the effect of a striker on coins when they both collide.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

The colli sion be elastic in nature. Hence both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. According to law of conservation of linear momentum. In one dimensional elastic

collision, the relative velocity before collision

is equal to the relative velocity of separation after

collision.
