Question

points: 2
collisions in which particles transfer all of their kinetic energy to other particles are
a. elastic
b. inelastic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In elastic collisions, kinetic energy is conserved (not all transferred). In inelastic collisions, kinetic energy is not conserved, and particles can transfer all their kinetic energy to other particles (e.g., perfectly inelastic collision where objects stick together and maximum kinetic - energy loss occurs).

Answer:

B. inelastic
