Question
Underline the correct alternative:
(d) In an inelastic collision of two bodies, the quantities which do not change after the collision are the total kinetic energy/total linear momentum/total energy of the system of two bodies.
Solution
Total linear momentum
The total linear momentum always remains conserved, whether it is an elastic collision or an inelastic collision.
The total linear momentum always remains conserved, whether it is an elastic collision or an inelastic collision.
