Well it all depends on how the energy of the moving objects is transfered during the collision. In a elastic collision, first the objects are moving toward each other with both a certain kinetic energy, t...

It is good practice in physics to draw a diagram of the situation, so the first thing we want to do is create a picture of the problem, focussing on the object on the slide. Now we need to analyse what is...

Momentum is conserved. MU + mu = (M+m)v   (1200 x 8) + (800 x 0) = (1200 + 800)v 9600 = 2000v v = 9600/2000 = 4.8m/s

A stationary wave forms when there are two waves of equal frequency (or wavelength) travelling in opposite directions, passing through one another. Interference occurs, with constructive interference at a...

How much electrical charge has been transferred per second (from the relationship Q=It) charge = current x time.
