Motorcycle collisions are all too common in Bakersfield‚ and throughout California. In fact‚ the state’s Office of Traffic Safety reports that there were more than 450 motorcycle fatalities in 2013 alone. During that same year‚ many more people were injured in crashes involving motorcycles. Such accidents frequently have devastating results for motorcyclists due to the size difference between their bikes and other vehicles‚ and their lack of any external protection. Some motorcycle wrecks are unavoidable

When you think about having sewer repair done‚ you might immediately think about someone coming in and digging up your yard. However‚ this is not the only option. Instead‚ you can opt for trenchless sewer repair. As its name suggests‚ this type of repair involves doing sewer repair work without digging up your yard. These are some of the scenarios in which this can be the ideal type of sewer repair. 1. You’ve Put a Lot of Time and Money Into Your Landscaping If you have just put a lot of time and

Collisions may involve many different qualities but momentum is a main aspect of a collision. There are three main types of collisions: elastic collisions‚ inelastic collisions‚ and completely inelastic collisions. All collisions involve momentum because momentum is conserved in all collisions. Momentum is also known as mass in motion and a vector. Momentum equals mass times velocity‚ which is found during a collision. Momentum is an important part during a collision because it determines the outcome

conservation of momentum in collisions using two bodies. We also calculated the amount of kinetic energy in elastic and inelastic collisions before and after the collision. Introduction: When bodies collide with each other‚ the total momentum p = mv‚ is always conserved regardless of the type of collision provided no external forces are present. There are two types of collisions. In an elastic collision‚ both the kinetic energy and the momentum are conserved. An inelastic collision is one in which only

Experiment 4 Inelastic Collisions‚ Conservation of Momentum and Non Conservation of Kinetic Energy Preparation Prepare for this week’s experiment by studying Newton’s Laws‚ linear momentum‚ and kinetic energy. Principles In this experiment you will study a collision where a moving object strikes and sticks to an initially motionless object. When the colliding objects stick together the collision is said to be completely inelastic. The net momentum of the system should not change‚ but the

Distractions outside of the car are a leading cause to collisions in automobiles. Cell phone usage is ranked second in the top three causes of automobile accidents.The number one reason for collisions is getting lost in your own thoughts. Distracted drivers can cause injuries and in some cases‚ death.
