Quote: | I have NO idea what you are trying to say here, be more specific/clear.
|
im saying that hitting an object at 50km/h is the same as hitting an object at 50km/h. but because the wall is stationary, to get the same velocity as the two car collision you would have to be approaching the wall at 100km/h
Quote: | We don't seem to be on the same page.
|
actually, im not sure we are. im basically saying that a two car collision would cause as much collective damage as a one car/wall collision
Quote: | discussing the *speed* (not VELOCITY) at which the two cars approach each other isn't worth while. Velocity must have a DIRECTION, the rate at which the two cars approach each other is directionless!
|
i am discussing the freakin velocity! that's why there's the negative and positives!
and how does it not have a direction? its just different for each car
Quote: | ditch the numbers and the formulas
|
you do realise that you are also trying to explain yourself with numbers and formulas
Quote: | It is ridiculously obvious that two cars both going 50km/h one travelling from the left and one travelling from the right, will approach each other at a rate of 100km/h.
|
then how can you argue what you are?!! argh!
Quote: | Like I said, you have to take into account your PERSPECTIVE on the issue. If you are looking at the collision from an outsiders perspective, the energy involved in the crash where one car comes from the left at 50km/h and another comes from the right at 50km/h is going to be twice as destructive as one car hitting a wall (wall stationary, car 50km/h).
|
ok, i think we are on different grounds, here, that is exactly what im trying to say...
Quote: | If you are INSIDE one of the cars, and you are in the accident, the forces you experience either hitting a wall or another car coming at you are almost exactly the same
|
but i still dont see where you get this from. if the relative velocies are equal, the force would be equal. please tell me you agree with this one...
