Momentum and kinetic energy
Option B :
Momentum alone
Option :
Kinetic energy alone
Option :
Neither momentum nor kinetic energy
ans B ...reason?

Answer:
Since the collision between bullet and target is perfectly inelastic in nature, so the momentum of the "bullet + target" system is conserved but the kinetic energy.

Answer:
Momentum alone. Since no external force is acting on the bullet+solid block system, thus linear momentum of the system is conserved. ... So, kinetic energy is not conserved as some kinetic energy is lost as heat in a perfectly inelastic collision.
