Learn how to model elastic collisions in Python where both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. This 17-minute tutorial from Dot Physics demonstrates how to create a numerical simulation by implementing a spring force that pushes colliding objects apart. Follow along with the provided Python code example available at https://trinket.io/glowscript/44e9d32f7951 to build your own physics simulation of this fundamental concept.
