Maximizing tangential frictional forces effects in bidimensional collisions: a study of the tangent restitution coefficient through a video analysis approach
Abstract:In this work we used the video analysis technique to investigate the contribution of the friction forces to the dynamic of a series of oblique collisions of a basketball against the floor's surface. This contribution was evaluated through the tangent restitution coefficients associated to these collisions, which, in general, presented values distinct from the unit, proving, thus, its importance. Additionally, the appreciably values bigger than unity obtained for this quantity quantitatively confirms the physic… Show more
