Newton`s Second Law of Motion
... How does a cart change its motion when you push and pull on it? You might think that the harder you push on a cart, the faster it goes. Is the cart’s velocity related to the force you apply? Or does the force just change the velocity? Also, what does the mass of the cart have to do with how the moti ...

One useful result: for elastic collisions, the magnitude of the relative velocity is the same before and after the collision: |v1,i – v2,i | = |v1,f – v2,f | (This is true for elastic collisions in 2 and 3 dimensions as well). An important case is a particle directed at a stationary target (v2,i = ...
