Which of the following physical quantities is completely conserved during an inelastic collision?

Question

Team JKExamLibrary · Accepted Answer

The fundamental law of conservation of momentum dictates that in a closed system with no external net forces, total linear momentum is always conserved regardless of the collision type. In an inelastic collision, some kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy (like heat or sound or deformation work), meaning kinetic and total mechanical energy are explicitly NOT conserved.
