Describe and name the different types of collision. In which are the linear momentum and kinetic energy conserved
1 answer:
Answer:
1. Elastic collision
2. Inelastic collision
Explanation:
Elastic collision: collision is said to be elastic if total kinetic energy is not conserved and if there is a rebound after collision
the collision is described by the equation bellow
Inelastic collision: this type of collision occurs when the total kinetic energy of a body is conserved or when the bodies sticks together and move with a common velocity
the collision is described by the equation bellow
