This web page provides a detailed analysis of two inelastic collision problems: the breaking brick and the ballistic pendulum. It includes topics such as kinetic energy, conservation of momentum, conservation of mechanical energy, and compression. Still images and diagrams are integrated with text to promote understanding of important concepts.
This tutorial is part of the PhysClip collection of web-based resources on introductory mechanics, electricity, and magnetism.
