Question

distinguish between elastic and inelastic collision

Answer 1

ELASTIC COLLISION:
1) the collision in which both the moment and kinetic energy of the system remain conserved are called elastic collisions
2) there is no loss of kinetic energy during elastic collisions
3) the forces involved are conservative in nature
4) mechanical energy is not transformed into any other form of energy

INELASTIC COLLISION:
1) the collisions in which only Momentum is conserved but kinetic energy is not conserved are called inelastic collision
2) there is a loss of kinetic energy during the inelastic collisions
3) the forces involved are non conservative in nature
4) hole mechanical energy may be transformed into other forms

Answer 2

heya !!


here is your answer⬇️⬇️


ELASTIC COLLISION :


The kinetic energy is conserved and remains same.

The forces will act on this collison.

here, kinetic energy is converted into potential energy.


INELASTIC COLLISION :

There will be no conservation of kinetic energy.

No forces will act on this.

Loss of kinetic energy.
