a collision where kinetic energy is transferred between particles but their total kinetic energy remains the same

A collision where kinetic energy is transferred between particles but their total kinetic energy remains the same

Elastic collision

A collision where kinetic energy is transferred between particles but their total kinetic energy remains the same is called an elastic collision. In simple terms, an elastic collision is when objects bounce off each other without losing any energy.

the tendency of objects to resist any change in motion

Inertia explained in an easy to understand way.

Inertia

The tendency of objects to resist any change in motion. Inertia. Inertia means that things like to keep moving how they are, unless something forces them to change.

the energy of a moving object

Kinetic energy explained in an easy to understand way.

Kinetic energy

The energy of a moving object. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because it is moving.

the amount of matter in an object

Mass explained in an easy to understand way.

Mass

The amount of matter in an object. Mass. Mass is how much stuff is inside something.

the product of an object's mass and velocity

Momentum explained in an easy to understand way.

Momentum

The product of an object's mass and velocity. Momentum. Momentum is how much motion an object has based on its mass and speed.

a change in an object’s position

Motion explained in an easy to understand way.

Motion

A change in an objects position. Motion. Motion is when an object's location changes over time.

for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

Newtons third law of motion explained in an easy to understand way.

Newtons third law of motion

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton's Third Law of Motion. When one object pushes or pulls on another object, the second object pushes or pulls back with the same strength in the opposite direction.

speed and direction of a moving object

Velocity explained in an easy to understand way.

Velocity

Speed and direction of a moving object. Velocity. Velocity is how fast something is moving in a specific direction.
