Energy Transfer in Collisions

What happens when two or more objects collide and use force on one another?

• inertia

• collision

• momentum

• non-collision

Which one has less momentum in a crash if both are moving at the same speed, a truck or a car? 

• The truck, because it is bigger

• The car, because it is smaller

• Both have the same momentum

•   Neither has momentum.

Energy transfer is

• when an object is in motion.

• change energy from sound to heat sound.

• the movement of energy from object to another.

• when energy changes to a different type or form.
