Want this question answered?
Momentum is conserved in a collision. If two cars have the same mass and are traveling at the same speed and collide headfirst, the momentum of both cars cancel each other out and they will be motionless. If one has greater speed or mass than the other, it will still have the difference in momentum after the collision.
No. Total energy is always conserved, but not so mechanical energy.
no it's not cuz if there is friction energy wont be conserved
no it's not cuz if there is friction energy wont be conserved
When you throw matter from a height, mechanical energy is not conserved by you, but it is by the matter. You are exerting mechanical energy to throw the object, and the matter is conserving it by not having to do any work to move.
It depends on the situation
Yes, it can. For instance, if you have friction in the system mechanical energy of the system is not conserved.
gravity
Mechanical energy is equal to potential energy plus kinetic energy in a closed system. The total mechanical energy is conserved.

In what pattern does the flow of energy in the ecosystem take place
Total mechanical energy
