Q. In a two-dimensional elastic collision, which of the following is conserved?

द्वि-आयामी लोचदार टकराव में, निम्नलिखित में से क्या संरक्षित है?

A
Only energy
केवल ऊर्जा
B
Only momentum in x-direction
केवल x-दिशा में संवेग
C
Momentum in all directions and energy
सभी दिशाओं और ऊर्जा में गति
D
Only direction
केवल दिशा

Explanation

In a 2D elastic collision, the following are conserved:

  • Momentum in both x and y directions, because no external forces act.

  • Kinetic energy, because the collision is elastic.
    Hence, both momentum in all directions and energy are conserved.
