d 2 types of collisions r elastic collision n inelastic collision
in both of them momentum n total energy is conserved but in elastic one kinetic energy is also conserved .in inelastic collision
kinetic energy is not conserved.in a perfecly inelastic collision two bodies stick together after collision

There are two types of collisions one is elastic & other is non elastic collision. In elastic collision the velocity of body remains unchanged even after the collisions. eg:- Collision between molecules of air. In non eleastic collision the velocity of body changes. eg;-Collision between two cars.

Elastic, then Inelastic, then Plastic.

In Elastic, they conserve energy and momentum (like two bouncy balls hitting eachother in air)

In Inelastic, they conserve only momentum, and not energy... can't think of an example for that.

In Plastic, the two objects completely lose energy and momentum, and stick... Think of cars crashing head on, or two balls of mud rolling into each other.

one collision is when the trolleis or bodies collide and stick togater
and the other one is that they were sticking togather at first and after the collision they move apart.

you have elastic, less elastic and inelastic.
check the site in the source i will explain everythin to u

i forget the name but one is where they stick together and the other one they bounce apart.
