I'm new to this forum, and during the 10+ hours of googling I've done I've found links to this site over and over. Since I can't figure it out on my own, perhaps this awesome community can help.
My problem is as follows:
I have Object A and Object B, and I want to know their force upon collision.
Object A weights 2.7 grams and is traveling at 54 Meters per second. (194.4 kph)
It's force equals to:
0.1458 Newton
14.867462385218195 gram force
0.014867462385218196 Kg Force
-----
Object B weights 200 grams and is traveling at 44 m/s
It's force equals to:
8.8 Newton
897.3502674205769 Gram force
0.8973502674205769 Kg Force
How do I calculate this ? Do I just add their gram forces and that's it? Doesn't seem right to me...
This is where I get confused.
I want to find out how much force is generated when this two objects collide in exact opposite directions. ----><----
If I calculate their kinetic energy.. I don't really know how to convert it back to force ? I'm soo confused. :)
Object A Kinetic energy = 3.9366 Joules
Object B Kinetic energy = 193.6 Joules
Something needs to be multiplied...
Any explanation as to how to calculate would be amazing! thanks!
