problems involving elastic and inelastic collisions in one dimension

External forces acting on a body, bring about a change in its state or configuration. The latter is possible when the body is not free to move, but the molecules are compelled to change their positions. Such forces are called deforming forces. These forces bring about a change in the length, volume..

Motion in One, Two and Three Dimensions - A body is said to be in motion if its position changes with respect to its surrounding. In order to completely describe the motion of such objects, we need to specify its position. For this, we need to know the position coordinates. In s..

A body is said to be in motion if its position changes with respect to its surrounding. In order to completely describe the motion of such objects, we need to specify its position. For this, we need to know the position coordinates. In some cases, three position coordinates are required, in some ca..

If k 1 is very much less than k 2 that is k 1 << k 2 then the intermediate B is transformed into the product C as soon as it is forme..

If k 1 is very much less than k 2 that is k 1 << k 2 then the intermediate B is transformed into the product C as soon as it is formed. In such cas..

An equation that involves one or more derivatives of an unknown function is called a _______ => Linear equation or Trignometric equation or Differential equation or Exponential equation or Quadratic equation..

Torque in Two and Three Dimensions - If a force acts on a particle P, then the torque acting on the particle with respect to the origin O is given by where gives the position of the particle with reference to the origin O. If both and lie in the XY plane the..

Suppose X = a - b Let D a and D b be absolute errors in measurements of quantities a and b, values of a and b and D X be maximum error in X. Maximum absolute error in X = Maximum absolute error in a + Maximum absolute error in b From equations (1) and (2) it is evident that, when ..
