Variables Used
Loss of K.E During Perfectly Inelastic Collision - (Measured in Joule) - Loss of K.E during perfectly inelastic collision, in this type of collision, the objects involved in the collisions do not stick, but some kinetic energy is still lost.
Mass of Body A - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of body A is the measure of the quantity of matter that a body or an object contains.
Mass of Body B - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of body B is the measure of the quantity of matter that a body or an object contains.
Initial Velocity of Body A Before the Collision - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The initial velocity of body A before the collision is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference and is a function of time.
Initial Velocity of Body B Before the Collision - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The initial velocity of body B before the collision is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference and is a function of time.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Mass of Body A: 30 Kilogram --> 30 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Mass of Body B: 13 Kilogram --> 13 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Initial Velocity of Body A Before the Collision: 5.2 Meter per Second --> 5.2 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Initial Velocity of Body B Before the Collision: 10 Meter per Second --> 10 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
EL inelastic = (m1*m2*(u1-u2)^2)/(2*(m1+m2)) --> (30*13*(5.2-10)^2)/(2*(30+13))

What happens in an inelastic collision?

An inelastic collision is one in which objects stick together after impact, and kinetic energy is not conserved. This lack of conservation means that the forces between colliding objects may convert kinetic energy to other forms of energy, such as potential energy or thermal energy.

How to Calculate Loss of Kinetic Energy during Perfectly Inelastic Collision?

Loss of Kinetic Energy during Perfectly Inelastic Collision calculator uses Loss of K.E During Perfectly Inelastic Collision = (Mass of Body A*Mass of Body B*(Initial Velocity of Body A Before the Collision-Initial Velocity of Body B Before the Collision)^2)/(2*(Mass of Body A+Mass of Body B)) to calculate the Loss of K.E During Perfectly Inelastic Collision, Loss of kinetic energy during perfectly inelastic collision, an inelastic collision is a collision in which there is a loss of kinetic energy. While the momentum of the system is conserved in an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not. This is because some kinetic energy had been transferred to something else. Loss of K.E During Perfectly Inelastic Collision is denoted by EL inelastic symbol.
