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.
What else can I help you with?
What is the kind of collision produces the greatest force of impact?
A head-on collision typically produces the greatest force of impact because the kinetic energy of both vehicles is concentrated in the direction of the collision, leading to a more significant transfer of energy. This type of collision is often the most severe and can result in severe damage and injury.
What is the definition of a superelastic collision?
A superelastic collision is when the total kinetic energy AFTER a collision is more than the total kinetic energy BEFORE the collision. It's more easily seen when examining the speeds (the masses will normally stay the same) of the two objects. When the speeds are faster AFTER the collision than BEFORE the collision, you likely have a superelastic collision. (Kinetic Energy equals 1/2xMassxSpeed^2) When the speed increases there is a larger kinetic energy. Before you implode (I almost did) from the disregard of the first law of thermodynamics (that energy can't be created or destroyed, only transferred and transformed), the increase in kinetic energy is most likely a conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy. An example would be two carts with springs colliding and creating a supercollision. Since the springs are triggered because of the collision, their potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy and the carts will leave the collision with a larger velocity and thus more kinetic energy.
What type of collision is kinetic energy is conserved?
An elastic collision conserves kinetic energy. In this type of collision, the total kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision.
What collision has no energy loss?
An elastic collision is a type of collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. This means that the total kinetic energy of the system before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision.
Is kinetic energy conserved in an elastic collision?
Yes, kinetic energy is conserved in an elastic collision, meaning the total kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the 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 collision has no energy loss?
An elastic collision is a type of collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. This means that the total kinetic energy of the system before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision.
Why a high speed collision may cause more damage to vehicles than a low speed collision?
More kinetic energy involved.
Is kinetic energy conserved in an elastic collision?
Yes, kinetic energy is conserved in an elastic collision, meaning the total kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision.
How is the activation energy related to whether or not collision between molecules is successful?
Generally speaking, the lower the activation energy, the more successful collision between molecules will happen.
How is energy conserved in an elastic collision?
In an elastic collision, energy is conserved because the total kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision. This means that the energy is not lost or gained during the collision, but rather transferred between the objects involved.
What is the difference between an inelastic collision and an elastic collision?
In an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved and some energy is lost as heat or sound. In an elastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved and no energy is lost.
Why a high speed collision between two cars would cause more damage than a low speed collision between the same two cars?
In a high speed collision, the cars have more kinetic energy which creates more force upon impact. This increased force results in more deformation and damage to the vehicles and occupants. In contrast, a low speed collision carries less kinetic energy and therefore causes less damage.
In which type of collision is the kinetic energy of the system unchanged?
In an elastic collision, the kinetic energy of the system remains unchanged. This means that the total kinetic energy before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision.
