Define elastic collision.

• A collision in which kinetic energy and momentum are conserved

• A collision in which kinetic energy is converted to potential energy

• A collision in which kinetic energy is not conserved

• A collision in which momentum is not conserved

Explain the concept of impulse.

• Impulse is the change in momentum of an object when a force is applied for a certain amount of time.

• Impulse is the speed of an object

• Impulse is the force applied to an object

• Impulse is the same as momentum

What is the relationship between impulse and change in momentum?

• Impulse is equal to the change in momentum.

• Impulse has no effect on the change in momentum.

• Impulse is inversely proportional to the change in momentum.

• Impulse is directly proportional to the change in momentum.

State the law of conservation of momentum.

• The total momentum of a closed system remains constant if no external forces act on it.

• The total momentum of a closed system decreases over time

• The total momentum of a closed system increases over time

• The law of conservation of momentum only applies to open systems

What is the difference between elastic and inelastic collisions?

• In elastic collisions, momentum is not conserved, while in inelastic collisions, momentum is conserved.

• In elastic collisions, kinetic energy is conserved, while in inelastic collisions, kinetic energy is not conserved.

• In elastic collisions, the objects stick together after the collision, while in inelastic collisions, the objects bounce off each other.

• In elastic collisions, the objects lose energy, while in inelastic collisions, the objects gain energy.

How does impulse affect the motion of an object?

• It causes the object to disappear

• It changes the velocity or direction of the object.

• It increases the object's mass

• It has no effect on the object's motion
