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 the difference in elastic collision and inelastic collision?

Elastic collision transfers more energy into motion while inelastic transfers energy into deformation of the objects. Elastic could be called more efficient transfer.


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.


What is A collision between ideally elastic bodies in which the final and initial kinetic energies are the same?

That's called an "elastic collision".


What would have happened to the gas if the molecular collisions were not elastic?

In an inelastic collision, part of the kinetic energy is absorbed by the colliding objects, and converted into heat. For an inelastic collision to occur between molecules, the energy would need to be absorbed at some lower level.


Elastic and inelastic collisions?

its a collision


What is the difference between elastic and inelastic collisions?

Elastic Collision is the collision in which colliding objects rebound without lasting deformation or heat generation.Inelastic collision is a collision in which the colliding objects become distorted and generate heat during collision and possibly stick together.


Is an example of conservation of momentum?

Elastic collision.
