What is the momentum of marbles after collision?
Same as before the collision. This applies whether the collision was elastic (no loss of kinetic energy) or inelastic (some kinetic energy lost).
What is the difference between an elastic collision and an inelastic collision?
No loss in energy due to collision is for elastic collision. But there will be a loss during collision in case of in-elastic collision. So KE will remain constant before and after collision in case of elastic collision.
What is elastic and inelastic collision?
In an elastic collision, no kinetic energy is lost, and the relative speed of separation of the objects after the collision is the same as the relative speed before the collision. In an inelastic collision, part of the elastic energy is lost, and the relative speed after the collision is less.
A collision in which the total momentum and kinetic energy remain constant?
Kinetic energy is only conserved if the collision is elastic. All other collisions will have some loss of kinetic energy even when momentum is conserved.
Will a ball bounce higher if dropped on tile or carpet?
Tile since loss of energy due to collision will be less compared to that on carpet.

What happenes in an inelastic collision?
In inelastic collisions, there is a net loss of kinetic energy after the collision has occurred.

What happens to the vehicles in a collision and the principles of elastic and inelastic collisions?
When the collision is perfectly elastic then energy is not lost but exchanged between the bodies collided. So total KE would remain the same before and after collision. But in case of inelastic collision, there would be loss of energy in the form of heat or sound or vibration etc etc. But whether collision is elastic or inelastic the momentum is conserved. That is, the total momentum in a given direction would be the same before and after collision.
How did the elastic collision effect the total momentum and total kinetik energy in the system?
In a perfectly elastic collision total momentum and total energy remains constant. First law of physics - true everywhere even inside a black hole.
Special cases of inelastic collision?
A special case of inelastic collision would be no kinetic energy. This is when there is no energy.
What collision produces more energy?
That depends what you mean by "produce". You may be aware that you can't create energy where there was none before.In a perfectly elastic collision, no kinetic energy is lost.In an inelastic collision (the objects stick together after the collision), much of the kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy, mainly heat.
1 In a collision that is inelastic the total what after the collision is not the same as before the collision?
Hi, in line with Newton's laws of motion the momentum before and after a collision is always conserved (when no external force is applied to change the systems momentum). In elastic collisions we can apply the conservation of momentum and conservation of energy principles. In inelastic collisions we can only apply the conservation of momentum principle. Energy is not conserved in inelastic collisions because energy is lost through small deformations, noise, friction, etc. We can compute the coefficient of restitution that helps determine this degree of energy loss from impulse-momentum equations.
Comparison between elastic and inelastic collision?
In an elastic collision, all initial kinetic energy is fully restored as final kinetic energy. where nothing is converted into noise, heat or any other form of energy. In an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is "lost" to thermal or sound energy.
