Question
Which of the following is not an inelastic collision ?
A man jump on a cart
A bullet embedded in a block
Collision of two glass ball
none of the above
Solution
C.
Collision of two glass ball
Inelastic collision:- The deformation may not be relieved and the two bodies could move together after the collision. A collision in which two particles move together after the collision is called completely inelastic collision. Collision in which momentum of the system is conserved but not the kinetic energy are called inelastic collisions. In the above cases, collision of two glass ball is an inelastic collision.
