प्रश्न
Two bodies make an elastic head-on collision on a smooth horizontal table kept in a car. Do you expect a change in the result if the car is accelerated in a horizontal road because of the non inertial character of the frame? Does the equation "Velocity of separation = Velocity of approach" remain valid in an accelerating car? Does the equation "final momentum = initial momentum" remain valid in the accelerating car?
उत्तर
- The equation "Velocity of separation = Velocity of approach" remains valid in the accelerating car because it depends only on relative velocities.
- The equation "Final momentum = Initial momentum" does not remain valid in the accelerating car due to the frame's non-inertial nature and pseudo-forces.
