... Inelastic Collisions • Perfectly inelastic collisions occur when two objects collide and stick together. • After the collision we can treat the objects as though they were one. • Because vf is the same for both objects you can factor it out – m1v1i + m2v2i = m1v1f + m2v2f becomes – m1v1i + m2v2i = ...

Newton`s Third Law
... Newton’s Third Law • To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. • If object A exerts force F on object B, object B exerts force –F on object A, along the same line of interaction. ...
