This video is about elastic and inelastic collisions in 1D, 2D and 3D - and how the collision of conservation of energy with conservation of momentum, plus a secret direction, results in a completely predetermined behavior for most collisions.

The equations you showed actually have two solutions, which makes sense, because the energy equation is quadratic. For a perfectly elastic collision, the other solution is that the objects just pass through each other unaffected, which of course also conserves momentum and kinetic energy.

As a somebody who deals with computer simulations of mechanical systems for living, I can assure that simulation of collisions is actually a really complicated topic. If you have a system of multiple interconnected bodies, i.e. you are dealing with multibody system dynamics (that is the scientific keyword here), you can no longer deal with mass and velocity only, but instead you are, usually, solving accelerations from a system of nonlinear differential equations that describe the dynamic force equilibrium of the system. Contacts are treated as external forces, which means you need to be able to solve both the magnitude and the direction of the force, which is not a trivial task when the shape of the object is complex. Also, for contacts to be actually any useful, you need to model the friction forces at the contact points, which is not exactly trivial either, since, among other reasons, many models fail to create any force at zero velocity. In total, this means any contact can need, depending on the models used, 4-8 individually tuned parameters to work. Of course, if you are making a video game, things can get a lot simpler since accuracy doesn't really matter. But for an accurate simulation that you could use for engineering purposes, things are quite different.

@PavelKostromitinov 2 жыл бұрын

As a somebody who used video game engines to simulate collisions for some simulator software, I can tell you things maybe get simpler - but they are definitely not simple. A lot of work goes into tuning simulation steps, and fake masses and so on, so that objects behave in a 'realistic' way and still not require a thousand simulation steps a second. And remembering how difficult it is to simulate a rope still makes me wake up at night...

@Alexander_Sannikov 2 жыл бұрын

actually for engineering purposes things are often much easier than for games because you can do calculations offline. physics in games is realtime and both the collision detection system and the solver need to be fast enough in order to run in realtime and they also need to degrade gracefully when it just can't keep up. for engineering you can often bruteforce very simple/reliable/slow methods that are simply not viable for realtime purposes.

@vict0rmike 2 жыл бұрын

@@PavelKostromitinov Oh, I never claimed they were simple :) In some ways it is actually simpler to aim for physically accurate solution, since you can, at least in theory, rely on hard data when tuning the system. However, not all parameters are available and not all parameters have a physically clear meaning, so you will still end up tuning your system to make it behave in realistic manner. And yes, ropes are nightmare material, even at around 1 millisecond step size where I am working...

@vict0rmike 2 жыл бұрын

Agree with this a lot. What this video is basically saying is: if you ignore everything that makes collisions complicated, they become simple, which is something rather vacuous. The fact that collisions can get pretty complicated is the reason something like the LHC exists, because by colliding things you can see how the physics works by looking at the cross sections.

We have been trying to realistically simulate collisions with computers for more than 30 years now, and we still have to use hacks, like virtual thickening of surfaces, smoothing out surfaces and their motions etc. When you measure time in discrete intervals collisions are a lot more complicated. In order to know where the "hidden axis" is, you need to know the exact moment of collision, which is near-impossible in a system where time is discrete and of limited resolution.

For those who like to think in terms of symmetries, in 3D, if you combine translations, rotations, and frame changes (boosts), there are 10 symmetries that are imposed-i.e. ten equations to be satisfied. The variables of a 2->2 scattering problem are the four incoming and outgoing momenta, which account for 4*3=12 variables. So in total the collision depends on only _two_ variables, which you can take to be the incoming energy and relative momentum.

The driver offered me any amount of money to let him leave the scene of the accident. I asked you've been drinking, haven't you?

I love having to stop the video every time additional text is shown for a fraction of a second

I have the creeping suspicion that you do not, in fact, love having to stop the video.

I think this video has the most side notes of any Minute Physics video

These days videos are sparse...it's always a pleasant surprise when I get the minute physics new video notification

The little caveat pop ups felt WAY too fast. I can usually pause quick enough to read them but I had to rewind for each one this video.

The amount of 0.1s-long notes in this video is over 9000. is it just me who struggles to watch the video properly because of them? I have to constantly pause and rewind to read the notes
