Lesson: Collisions and Conservation of Momentum Mathematics • Third Year of Secondary School

Join Nagwa Classes

Attend live Mathematics sessions on Nagwa Classes to learn more about this topic from an expert teacher!

In this lesson, we will learn how to apply the law of conservation of momentum to study collisions in one dimension and differentiate between elastic and inelastic collisions.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

understand the difference between an elastic collision and an inelastic collision,
understand the definition of a perfectly inelastic collision,
solve problems involving elastic collisions of two bodies,
solve problems involving perfectly inelastic collisions (two bodies coalescing into one body).
