During inelastic collision between two bodies, which of the following quantities always remain conserved ?

A

Total kinetic energy

B

Total mechanical energy

C

Total linear momentum

D

Speed of each body

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
When we are considering the two bodies as system the total external force on the system will be zero.
Hence, total linear momentum of the system remains conserved.
