Perfectly Inelastic Collision

Perfectly Inelastic Collision

A collision in which both bodies stick together after collision.

### Formula

$$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v$$

### Final Velocity

$$v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}$$

### Terminologies

- v → Common velocity after collision.

### Conditions / Special Cases

Maximum loss of kinetic energy occurs.

### Usage

- Used in bullet-block and sticking collision problems.
