Question:medium
In elastic collision
In elastic collision
Show Hint
To remember:
- Elastic: Momentum (YES), KE (YES).
- Inelastic: Momentum (YES), KE (NO).
Only the kinetic energy "breaks" in inelastic collisions!
Updated On: May 6, 2026
- both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved
- neither momentum nor kinetic energy is conserved
- only momentum is conserved
- only kinetic energy is conserved
- forces involved in the interaction are non-conservative
Show Solution
The Correct Option is A
