1. Again, let's assume an inelastic collision . 2. An inelastic collision is sometimes also called a " plastic collision ." 3. Rather than displacing the target, you are deforming it via an inelastic collision . 4. However, the difference between elastic and inelastic collision was not understood at the time. 5. Could this be considered an inelastic collision ? 6. The disk remains dynamically cool due to inelastic collisions among the cm-sized objects. 7. The two simplest methods for deciding on a new velocity are perfectly elastic collisions and inelastic collisions . 8. In this case the outcome will be quite utterly different for an elastic versus an inelastic collision . 9. In the 1980s Strutinsky worked on correlations in partial waves in heavy-ion deep inelastic collisions . 10. Neutrons slow down in elastic and inelastic collisions , until they are absorbed via Neutron capture or lost by leakage.
