Hello, I got stuck with this multiple choice question.

QUESTION 3
Elastic collision
O A force exerted over a time interval that causes a change in an object's momentum
O The product of an object's mass and its velocity
O A collision in which the total momentum and the total kinetic energy remain constant
O The total momentum of all objects interacting with one another remains constant, regardless of the nature of the forces between the objects.
O A collision in which some of the kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy
O Within a closed system, the total amount of energy will remain constant.
QUESTION 4
Inelastic collision
O A force exerted over a time interval that causes a change in an object's momentum
O The product of an object's mass and its velocity
O A collision in which the total momentum and the total kinetic energy remain constant
O The total momentum of all objects interacting with one another remains constant, regardless of the nature of the forces between the objects.
O A collision in which some of the kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy
O Within a closed system, the total amount of energy will remain constant.

Expert Solution
Step 1

An elastic collision is a collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision. Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved quantities in elastic collisions.
