= Impact (mechanics)
{wiki=Impact_(mechanics)}
Impact in mechanics refers to the collision or interaction between two or more bodies that results in a sudden change in their velocities and momentum. It is a crucial concept in various fields of physics and engineering, particularly in the study of dynamics, collisions, and material behavior. Key aspects of impact mechanics include: 1. **Types of Collisions**: - **Elastic Collision**: Both kinetic energy and momentum are conserved.
