About this Simulation

This 2D collision simulator allows learners to observe and analyse collisions between two objects in a two-dimensional plane. Students can adjust object masses, initial velocities, and collision angles to explore how momentum and energy transfer during impacts, making abstract physics concepts tangible and measurable.

Learning objectives: Understand conservation of momentum in 2D collisions | Analyse elastic and inelastic collision outcomes | Predict and verify velocity and energy changes using interactive variables
