Similar to a head-on shot with the cue ball on a pool table, the projectile will come to rest and the target will move off with an equal velocity for a head-on impact with a stationary object of equal mass.
What is meant by elastic collision ?
A collision is considered elastic if it does not result in a net loss of kinetic energy for the system. Momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved in elastic collisions.
Elastic collisions occur when there is no net loss of kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision. Accidental crashes. Inelastic collisions are the kind of collisions when there is a loss of kinetic energy.
Elastic collisions preserve both kinetic and momentum energy. The total kinetic energy of the system prior to the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy of the system following the collision.
