... Example: a proton-proton collision A proton collides elastically with another proton that is initially at rest. The incoming proton has an initial speed of 3.50 X 105 m/s and makes a glancing collision with the second proton*. After the collision, one proton moves off at an angle of 370 to the orig ...

... 1. Identify all forces acting on the object -Pushes or Pulls -Frictional forces -Tension in a string -Gravitational Force (or weight = mg where g is 9.8 m/s2) - “Normal forces” (one object touching another). 2. Draw a “Freebody Diagram” -draw the object, show all forces acting on that object as vect ...
