Which of the following is not conservated in an inelestic collision ?

Assertion: The conservation of kinetic energy in elastic collision applies after the collision is over and does not hold at every instant of the collision. Reason: During a collision the total linear momentum is conserved at each instant of the collision.

In a head on elastic collision of two bodies of equal masses

Assertion: In inelastic collision, linear momentum of system does not remain constant during collision. But before collision and after collision, it is constant. Reason: In elastic collision, momentum remains constant during collision also.
