MCQ
The quantities remaining constant in a collision are
  • A
    Momentum, kinetic energy and temperature
  • B
    Momentum and kinetic energy but not temperature
  • C
    Momentum and temperature but not kinetic energy
  • Momentum but neither kinetic energy nor temperature

Answer

Correct option: D.
Momentum but neither kinetic energy nor temperature
d
(d) since velocities of the colliding bodies change, the $K.E.$ will change. The shapes of the bodies at the time of collision change due to the force, hence temperature will also change.

Only the momentum will remain constant.
