Since momentum is conserved in collision, but how it is conserved in inelastic collision?

hello buddy❤️
It is a basic law of physics that momentum is always conserved - there is no known exception. Kinetic energy does not need to be conserved, because it can turn into other forms of energy - for example potential energy or internal/thermal energy ("heat"). Momentum can also turn into other form of momentum - momentum of the EM field - but the amount of momentum so transformed seems negligible in ordinary collisions of macroscopic bodies.
hope this helps uh...❤️❤️

There are two types of collosion - elsatic and inelastic
In elastic collison kinetic energy and momentum is conserved .
Whereas in inelastic collison, only momentum is conserved. Kinetic energy is lost in such a collison.
