Which quantity is conserved during the elastic collision of gas molecules?
Answers
Answer:
An elastic collision is a collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision. Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved quantities in elastic collisions. Suppose two similar trolleys are traveling toward each other with equal speed.
Answer:
Kinetic energy is conserved during the elastic collision of gas molecules.
Explanation:
During the elastic collision of gas molecules, both the kinetic energy and momentum are conserved But in the inelastic collision, kinetic energy is changed.
Elastic collision- An elastic collision is a situation in where multiple objects collide with each other. Most common example of elastic collision is the balls on Newton's cradle or billiard balls colliding.
Law of conservation of momentum is obeyed by all types of collision.
