Answer:
Perfectly elastic collision
Explanation:
In a closed system, an elastic collision is a type of collision between two bodies, where the total momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.
We are told from the problem that the ball bounces back with its original velocity. For the ball to bounce back to the thrower in the first place, this is our first hint that the collision is elastic. If the collision was inelastic, the ball would most likely have stuck to the wall.
In addition to that, the velocity of the ball remains fairly unchanged even after the collision. This confirms that the kinetic energy it had before the collision is the same as the kinetic energy it has after the collision.
As a result of this, the collision is perfectly elastic
