Collision response

Collision response refers to the methods and processes involved in determining how objects interact after a collision occurs in a physical simulation, such as in computer graphics, video games, or physics engines. When two or more objects collide, their velocities, positions, and sometimes even their shapes can change based on the nature of the collision. The primary goals of collision response are to accurately simulate the physical effects of collisions and to ensure that objects behave in a realistic manner according to the laws of physics.
