what does an elastic collision mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies after the encounter is equal to their total kinetic energy before the encounter.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Pretty much: Total Kinetic Energy before the collision = Total Kinetic Energy after collision
