Work
1. Introduction In physics, work is said to be done when a force applied to an object causes displacement in
Difference between Elastic Collision and Inelastic Collision
1. Conservation Laws Summary Quantity Elastic Collision Inelastic Collision Momentum Conserved Conserved Kinetic Energy Conserved Not conserved Total Energy Conserved
Dimensions and Units of Work
The dimensional formula of work is \([ML^2T^{-2}]\). Its absolute unit in SI is joule and is denoted by \(J\). In
Energy
The energy of a body is defined as its capacity for doing work. Since, the energy of a body is
Relation between Kinetic Energy and Linear Momentum
If a body has a mass of $ \displaystyle m$ then, $ \displaystyle \begin{array}{l}\text{K}\text{.E}\text{.}=\dfrac{1}{2}m{{v}^{2}}=\dfrac{1}{{2m}}{{m}^{2}}{{v}^{2}}\\\Rightarrow \text{K}\text{.E}\text{.}=\dfrac{{{{p}^{2}}}}{{2m}}\end{array}$ where $ \displaystyle p$ is
Coefficient of Restitution or Coefficient of Resilience
1. Introduction When two bodies collide, they deform momentarily and then regain their shapes. During this collision, a part of
Conservative and Non-Conservative Forces
Conservative forces A force is described as a conservative force if the work done by or against it when moving
