In anchorage, collisions of a vehicle with a moose are so common that they are referred to with the abbreviationmvc. suppose a 1000 kg car slides into a stationary 500 kg moose on a very slippery road, with the moose beingthrown through the windshield (a common mvc result). (a) what percent of the original kinetic energy is lost inthe collision to other forms of energy? a similar danger occurs in saudi arabia because of camel–vehiclecollisions (cvc). (b) what percent of the original kinetic energy is lost if the car hits a 300 kg camel? (c)generally, does the percent loss increase or decrease if the animal mass decreases?

Part a)

Part b)

Part c)

So from above discussion we have the result that energy loss will be more if the collision occurs with animal with more mass

Explanation:

Part a)

Let say the collision between Moose and the car is elastic collision

So here we can use momentum conservation

also by elastic collision condition we know that

now we have

now we have

Now loss in kinetic energy of the car is given as

so fractional loss in energy is given as

Part b)

Let say the collision between Camel and the car is elastic collision

So here we can use momentum conservation

also by elastic collision condition we know that

now we have

now we have

Now loss in kinetic energy of the car is given as

so fractional loss in energy is given as

Part c)

So from above discussion we have the result that energy loss will be more if the collision occurs with animal with more mass
