A collision is an isolated event in which two or more moving bodies (colliding bodies) exert forces on each other for a relatively short time.

Although the most common colloquial use of the word "collision" refers to accidents in which two or more objects collide, the scientific use of the word "collision" implies nothing about the magnitude of the forces.

Some examples of physical interactions that scientists would consider collisions:

An insect touches its antenna to the leaf of a plant. The antenna is said to collide with leaf. A cat walks delicately through the grass. Each contact that its paws make with the ground is a collision. Each brush of its fur against a blade of grass is a collision.

Some colloquial uses of the word collision are:

automobile collision, two cars colliding with each other mid-air collision, two planes colliding with each other ship collision, two ships colliding with each other kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Serving Ottawa > Collision Reporting Centres
Collision Reporting Centres

The OPS will introduce three Collision Reporting Centres in Ottawa.

Quick Facts:

There are 24 Ontario police services already using CRCs CRCs will significantly reduce wait times by allowing drivers to attend CRCs within a 24-hr period rather than wait for a police officer to arrive at the scene. CRCs are expected to process 13,000 collisions annually

CRCs are expected to realize $800,000 in cost recovery by the end of 2013.

The CRC project is part of the Ottawa Police Service Initiative designed to identify opportunities to improve service to residents and reduce costs through innovation and technology.

    The conservation of momentum can be a huge effect on the cars, so the conservation of momentum states that when there are no other outside forces like friction the total momentum of the objects interaction does not change. The amount of momentum before and after the collision will be the same. If this is the case then the momentum of the first car, mass times velocity, does not change the momentum of the second car if the second car is at rest so the second car would have the same momentum as the first…

    Collisions: In an intense steal from first to second base, or second base to home, many skilled base runners attempt to topple over their opponent to get called safe by a field umpire. This collision is considered an inelastic collision because the defensive player tends to fall on top of the offensive player sliding into them when they then both move forward toward the base. The initial velocity of the defensive player is 0 or at rest, and the initial velocity of the base runner is some value.…

    An important part of Newton’s law is momentum. In football terms this means the mass of a player multiplied by his velocity. Football players take advantage of speed and momentum to make contact and take their victims down right away. When football players get hard hits, some of the energy of the collision is transferred to the energy in sound waves in the air that you can hear. Newton’s Third Law is a big discovery in physics and can be proved in several ways, even in football.…

    Momentum is force of moving objects. It can be measured by multiplying an object’s mass and velocity. Basically, the concept of conservation of momentum is that the total momentum of objects before a collision is equal to the total momentum of the objects after the collisionIt is essential to remember that momentum is a vector quantity, meaning its definition requires the direction of the force. Newton’s Cradle provides a perfect example of this. When Ball 1 collides with Ball 2, it travels in a certain direction. For instance, the balls may be moving west to east. This means that the momentum is moving east.…
