In inelastic collisions most of the kinetic energy is lost/ transferred. Instead the energy is transformed into other energy type's i.e. potential, thermal and sound energy. For example when the vehicle collides with another object or vehicle, the vehicles panels, tyres, and other parts reach extremely high temperatures due to kinetic energy from the vehicle traveling on the road is transferred into the particles. Even the other object or the immediate surroundings are heated.

∙ 12y agoIn a elastic interaction, the object's motion decreases.
Lets say a girl slings a ball with her slingshot.
The ball is decreasing in motion because it stops.
The ball is increasing in stored elastic energy.
So the energy in a elastic interaction: decreases in motion, and increases in stored elastic energy.
Hope this helps :)

What Type of energy stored in an elastic band?
If the elastic band is stretched, there is elastic energy stored in it. That's a type of potential energy.
What type of energy is stored in the elastic?
Potential Elastic Energy.
Why does energy stored in deformed material in only its elastic portion?
The "elastic portion" is precisely the part where the material returns to its original shape, and thus returns its energy. Once the material does NOT return to its previous shape, it doesn't exert a force back to the original position, and there is no way to get the energy back.
What kind of energy is stored when you compress seat cushion?
elastic potential
What sentence can you use for elastic potential energy?
elastic potential energy is stored by the forces within a disorted elastic object
What kind of energy is stored in elastic material?
Thermal Energy
What Type of energy stored in an elastic band?
If the elastic band is stretched, there is elastic energy stored in it. That's a type of potential energy.
What type of energy is stored in the elastic?
Potential Elastic Energy.
Define elastic potential energy and gravitional potential energy?
Gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses by reason of its position in a gravitational field. While elastic potential energy, is the energy stored by a material or object as a result of deformation e.g. the energy stored in a bow when it is stretched.
Why does energy stored in deformed material in only its elastic portion?
The "elastic portion" is precisely the part where the material returns to its original shape, and thus returns its energy. Once the material does NOT return to its previous shape, it doesn't exert a force back to the original position, and there is no way to get the energy back.
What elastic potential energy?
Elastic potiential energy is the energy stored when an object is squeed or stretched.
What kind of energy is stored when you compress seat cushion?
elastic potential
What potential energy does a squashed ball have?
When a ball is squashed, it gains potential energy due to the compression of its material. This potential energy is stored in the form of elastic potential energy, as the ball has the potential to return to its original shape when released.
What sentence can you use for elastic potential energy?
elastic potential energy is stored by the forces within a disorted elastic object
What is the energy stored in elastic materials?
It is a form of potential energy. It turns in Kinetic energy (the energy of movement) when the elastic is released.
Compressed springs and stretched rubber bands are what type of stored energy?
Elastic energy - which is a type of potential energy.
What is energy stored by thing that stretch or compress?
"elastic energy"
