In an inelastic collision

A

momentum is not conserved

B

momentum is conserved but kinetic energy is not conserved

C

both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.

D

neither momentum nor kinetic energy is conserved

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In inelastic collision, kinetic energy before collision is not equal to kinetic energy after collision. But the linear momenum conserved in all collison.
