Consider a situation where two moving objects collide and rebound from each other. Kinetic energy

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In an elastic collision, kinetic energy is conserved, but in an inelastic collision, some of the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy such as heat or sound. Therefore, whether or not kinetic energy is conserved depends on the nature of the collision. Since the question does not specify the type of collision, the answer is C - may or may not be conserved, depending on the nature of the collision.
