A collision experiment is done on a horizontal table kept in an elevator. Do you expect a change in the results if the elevator is accelerated up or down because of the noninertial character of the frame?

Two bodies make an elastic head on colision on a smooth horizontal table kept in a car.Do you expect a change in the result if the car is accelerated on a horizontal road because of the noninertial character of the frame? Does the equation velocityof separation = velocity of approach remain valid in n accelerating car? Does the equation final momentum =initial momentum remain valid in the accelerating car?

The force of interaction between the molecules of same substance is called cohesive force hile force of interaction between molecules of different substances is called adhesive force . Both the forces are attracive and have a range of about 10 A . If we consider a molecule . A well inside a liquid we find that it is equally attracted by the surrounding molecules in all the dirctions ( with a sphere of radius 10 Å ) and so it does not experience any resultant force . On or near the surface of a liquid , the molecules do not exist on the free side and so a molecule ( say B ) experiences a resultant force vertically downwards into the liquid . For this reason , the molecules of the surface have a tendency to go into the liquid . Thus , the surface tends to contract and gives rise to surface tension . As surface molecules like B experience a net downward force of cohension and have tendency to go down , so in increasing the area of the surface more molecules are to be shifted to the surface from inside . Thus , more mechnical work will have to be done against the net downward force of cohension . This work is stored by the molecules in the surfaces as potential energy called free surface energy . Furthermore , molcules like P , in contact with the liquid will stick to the solid surface , i.e will meet it if the force of adhesion A is greater than net force of cohension C . The liquid will not the solid surface if C gt A Also , molecules like Q at the surface in contact with the solid will experience a net force of cohension C_(R) . If adhesion A is greater then cohension C_(R) , the resultant force will be F . As the liquid can't support tangential force , F must be perpendicular to the surface of the liquid . So , the menisus will be concave and the angle of contact will be acute ( gt 90^(@)) . However , if adhesion is lesser than cohension , the resultant force F will be directed into the liquid and so the menisus ( which is perpendicular to F as liquid support tangential force ) will be convex and the angle of contact will be obtuse ( gt 90^(@)) The free suface energy , stored in the surface is because of work done
