The type of collision shown is an inelastic collision. Collisions happen when two bodies in motion come in contact with each other. Inelastic collision are experienced when the momentum of each body is not conserved, therefore the bodies come to a complete stop.

There are two types of collision in physics which are named as elastic collision and inelastic collision.

Elastic collision is that type of collision in which both kinetic energy and momentum is conserved i.e total kinetic energy and momentum before collision is equal to the total kinetic energy and momentum after collision.As kinetic energy is conserved here,so less or ideally no damage occurs to the colliding bodies.

Inelastic collision is that type of collision in which only momentum is conserved but not kinetic energy .After the collision the kinetic energy is lost in forms heat,sound ,light etc.

Normally any deformation and destruction is due to the inelastic collision which results in the loss of kinetic energy.

Hence the helicopters were destroyed and deformed due to inelastic collision.

erik [133]

Answer:

Bounce 1 ,  pass 3,   emb2

Explanation:

(By the way I am also doing that question on College board physics page) For the Bounce arrow, since it bumps into the object and goes back, it means now it has a negative momentum, which means a larger momentum is given to the object. P=mv, so the velocity is larger for the object, and larger velocity means a larger kinetic energy which would result in a larger change in the potential energy. Since K=0.5mv^2=U=mgh, a larger potential energy would have a larger change in height which means it has a larger angle θ with the vertical line. Comparing with the "pass arrow" and the "Embedded arrow", the embedded arrow gives the object a larger momentum, Pi=Pf (mv=(M+m)V), it gives all its original momentum to the two objects right now. (Arrow and the pumpkin), it would have a larger velocity. However for the pass arrow, it only gives partial of its original momentum and keeps some of them for the arrow to move, which means the pumpkin has less momentum, means less velocity, and less kinetic energy transferred into the potential energy, and means less change in height, less θangle.  So it is  Bounce1, pass3, emb2.

A car accelerates from rest for 8.0 s, and reaches a speed of 66 m/s. How far will the
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Find the acceleration using this kinematic equation:

v_f=v_i+at\\66=0+a*8\\a=8.25m/s^2

Now use this kinematic equation to find the displacement:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2a*d\\66^2=0^2+2(8.25)d\\4356=16.5d\\d=264m
