About this Simulation

This interactive model allows students to explore one-dimensional collisions between objects in real-time. Adjust initial velocities and masses to observe how momentum is conserved during elastic and inelastic collisions. Visualise velocity changes, energy transfer, and collision outcomes dynamically.

Learning objectives: Understand momentum conservation in one-dimensional collisions | Distinguish between elastic and inelastic collision types | Analyse the relationship between mass, velocity, and collision outcomes
