(so it is part of your lab grade!) Don t forget HW is also due Thursday. Before going to the simulator, answer the following questions 1. What is an elastic collision and give two examples of objects colliding elastically: 2. What is an inelastic collision and give two examples of objects colliding inelastically: 3. What is the equation for an elastic collision: 4. What is the equation for an inelastic collision: 5. During an elastic collision, if the two objects colliding have the same mass what happens to their velocities? 6. Typically during an inelastic collision, the object with more momentum will (circle one) a. Continue in the same direction but slow down b. Continue in the same direction but speed up c. Change direction and speed up d. Change direction and slow down 7. Define Impulse:(definition, not formula)
