Let m1 and m2 be the masses , u1 and u2 be the velocities before the collision and v1 and v2 be the velocities after collision .
An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies after the encounter is equal to their total kinetic energy before the encounter .
In a perfectly elastic collision ( the simplest case ) , no kinetic energy is lost , and so the kinetic energy of the two objects after the collision is equal to their total kinetic energy before the collision .
The conservation of the total momentum demands that the total momentum before the collision is the same as the total momentum after the collision , and is expressed by the equation Likewise , the conservation of the total kinetic energy is expressed by the equation These equations may be solved directly to find vi when...
