  2. Collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision

    Deflection happens when an object hits a plane surface. If the kinetic energy after impact is the same as before impact, it is an elastic collision. If kinetic energy is lost, it is an inelastic collision.

  3. Collider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collider

    A collider is a type of particle accelerator that brings two opposing particle beams together such that the particles collide. [1] Compared to other particle accelerators in which the moving particles collide with a stationary matter target, colliders can achieve higher collision energies. Colliders may either be ring accelerators or linear ...

    A Mercury Tracer that was damaged by colliding with a white-tailed deer in Wisconsin. Road traffic collisions generally fall into one of five common types: . Lane departure crashes, which occur when a driver leaves the lane they are in and collides with another vehicle or a roadside object.

    σ AB is the reaction cross section (unit m 2), the area when two molecules collide with each other, simplified to = (+), where r A the radius of A and r B the radius of B in unit m. k B is the Boltzmann constant unit J⋅K −1. T is the absolute temperature (unit K).
