Physics Explained
Chapter 8: Collisions


In this video: This was from a great episode of MythBusters. The question goes like this. Suppose you have two equal mass cars in a head on collision (both going 50 m/s). Would you get the same result if you held one of the cars at 0 m/s and gave the other one double the speed (100 m/s)?

To further explore this, I made a python model for inelastic collisions.
