For inelastic collision between two spherical rigid bodies

For inelastic collision between two spherical rigid bodies

Options

  1. Athe total kinetic energy is conserved
  2. Bthe total potential energy is conserved
  3. Cthe linear momentum is not conserved
  4. Dthe linear momentum is conserved.

Correct answer

D. the linear momentum is conserved.

Step-by-step solution

In inelastic collision linear momentum is conserved, but total kinetic en ergy is not conserved.
