Question

Which of these is true of an inelastic collision between two objects in a closed system but not of an elastic collision?

Total momentum is conserved.

Total kinetic energy is conserved.

Kinetic energy is less after the collision.

Total momentum is not conserved.

Answer 1

@roadjester Hey :)

Answer 2

When you have an elastic collision, you have both conservation of linear momentum and conservation of kinetic energy.

In an inelastic collision, part of the kinetic energy is dissipated as a result of the objects sticking together.

Answer 3

That should give you the answer. :)
