If some type of exceedingly inelastic collision mechanism could be devised, couldn't scientists start collecting slow neutrinos?
12.
In elastic collisions, the mechanical energy is conserved but in inelastic collisions, some mechanical energy is converted into heat.
13.
No matter how " immovable " the wall is, it must suffer some deflection and damage in an inelastic collision.
14.
At intervals of 4.9 volts this process will repeat; each time the electrons will undergo one additional inelastic collision.
15.
The primary beam can transfer energy to electrons via elastic collisions with electrons and via inelastic collision processes such as impact ionization.
16.
Assuming a relatively inelastic collision, you only have to measure the resulting speeds to know their relative masses to reasonable precision.
17.
The most sophisticated devices for studying elastic and inelastic collisions were built by Willem Jacob's Gravesande and Petrus van Musschenbroek.
18.
A perfectly elastic collision has a coefficient of restitution of one; a perfectly inelastic collision has a coefficient of restitution of zero.
19.
In nuclear physics, an inelastic collision is one in which the incoming positive charge in an atom is concentrated at the nucleus.
20.
Further increases in the grid voltage restore enough energy to the electrons that suffered inelastic collisions that they can again reach the anode.
