1
New cards

A inellastic collision between objects is when

The total Kinetic energy of the system decreases

2
New cards

A inelastic collision is defined as

A collision where two objects stick together or become deformed

3
New cards

In an inelastic collision some of the initial kinetic energy

Is transformed by non conservative forces into other forms of energy

4
New cards

In a perfectly inelastic collision

The objects completely stick together, move with the same velocity, and become one
