Question

A large body collides with a stationary small body from the rear end. How do the bodies behave if the collision is inelastic?.

Answer 1

If the collision is inelastic, there is every possibility that the large body will drag the small stationary body along with it in the direction of the collision. Some amount of heat, light and sound energy will also be produced due to the kinetic energy of the large body. I hope the answer helps you.
