Conservation of Momentum in 2-D Calculator
The Conservation of Momentum in 2-D Calculator will calculate:
- Velocity components of the second object in each direction after a 2-D elastic collision
- Magnitude of final velocity of the second object for an elastic collision in 2 dimension
- Angle formed by velocity of the second object to the initial direction after collision in 2-D
The velocity components of the second object in each direction after a 2-D elastic collision are: x-component of final velocity = m/s y-component of final velocity = m/s |
The magnitude of final velocity of the second object for an elastic collision in 2 dimension Formula is m/s |
The angle formed by velocity of the second object to the initial direction after collision in 2-D is ° |
