2. For inelastic collision between two spherical rigid bodies
(a) the total kinetic energy is conserved
(b) the total mechanical energy is not conserved
(c) the linear momentum is not conserved
(d) the linear momentum is conserved

Answer 1

Answer:the total mechanical energy is conserved.

Explanation:

Since energy can neither be created nor destroyed. The bodies could also go to a height against gravity which is also work done on it.
