Elastic Collisions
by Professor Mark Sutherland, University of Toronto. http://thorin.adnc.com/~topquark/fun Control the ratio of initial to final velocity in a collision between two equal and elastic point masses. Displacement is plotted in both the target rest and center of mass frames. Professor Sutherland has a collection of physics applets and tutorials at fun@learning.physics. |
