collision momentum
11Center of momentum frame — A center of momentum frame (or zero momentum frame, or COM frame) of a system is any inertial frame in which the center of mass is at rest (has zero velocity). Note that the center of momentum of a system is not a location, but rather defines a… …
12Angular momentum — For a generally accessible and less technical introduction to the topic, see Introduction to angular momentum. Classical mechanics Newton s Second Law …
13Melbourne–Voyager collision — Date 10 February 1964 Place Jervis Bay, Australia Vesels involved • HMAS Melbourne (R21) • HMAS Voyager (D04) Cause Navigational …
14Head-on collision — with two cars involved …
15Nibiru collision — This article is about the doomsday scenario. For other uses, see Nibiru. V838 Mon, a star with an expanding light echo, purported as photographic evidence of Nibiru The Nibiru collision is a supposed disastrous encounter between the Earth and a… …
16inelastic collision — noun physics : a collision in which part of the kinetic energy of the colliding particles changes into another kind of energy (as radiation) * * * Mech. a collision in which the total kinetic energy of the colliding bodies or particles is not the …
17Late collision — is a type of collision found in the CSMA/CD protocol standard. If a collision error occurs after the first 512 bit times of data are transmitted by the transmitting stationIEEE [http://standards.ieee.org/getieee802/802.3.html 802.3 2005 Section… …
18Available energy (particle collision) — In particle physics, the available energy is the energy in a particle collision available to produce new matter from the kinetic energy of the colliding particles. Since the conservation of momentum must be held, a system of two particles with a… …
19Hinton train collision — The Hinton train collision was a railway accident that occurred on February 8, 1986. Twenty three people were killed in a collision between a Canadian National Railway freight train and a VIA Rail passenger train. It was the most lethal Canadian… …
20Spin-destruction collision — In a spin destruction (or spin disorientation) collision, the spin angular momentum of an atom is irretrievably scrambled. This type of collision can be a significant spin relaxation mechanism for polarized alkali metal vapor. In particular, the… …
