What is an elastic collision?

Physics
1 answer:
Anit [1.1K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A collision in which both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved

Explanation:

In classical physics, we have two types of collisions:

- Elastic collision: elastic collision is a collision in which both the total momentum of the objects involved and the total kinetic energy of the objects involved are conserved

- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum of the objects involved is conserved, while the total kinetic energy is not. In this type of collisions, part of the total kinetic energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy due to the presence of frictional forces. When the objects stick together after the collision, the collisions is called 'perfectly inelastic collision'

What is the interaction between surface water and groundwater in a watershed?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Groundwater occasionally discharges into surface water and then, they flow together as a body of water in a watershed.

Explanation:

According to www.mbgnet.net A watershed describes an area of land that contains a common set of streams and rivers that all drain into a single larger body of water, such as a larger river, a lake or an ocean.

Therefore, when groundwater discharges into a body of surface water, for example a stream, the stream just like several other streams in a watershed would flow into a larger body of water.
