Answer:
The two types of collisions are :
Type a)
<u>Elastic collision</u>
Type b)
<u>Inelastic collision</u>
Explanation:
Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.
During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.
Example :
When boxer hits with punches .
When bat hits the ball in cricket match.
So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is change in their velocity.
All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.
<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>
a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule
b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.
Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.
You are actually giving 5 points. Ps I just got five points for telling you that
Answer - Inter-molecular attractions
Explanation-
As we know everything around us is made up of matter that means everything has molecules as their basic structure. The state of anything is decided by the spaces between the molecules.
The state of the objects that have strong inter-molecular attractions a solid and gradually the lesser will be in state of liquid and gas. The attraction between the molecules is overcome only when a certain amount of energy is provided from outside.
