Q7 (d) State if each of the following statements is true or false. Give reasons for your answer. In an inelastic collision, the final kinetic energy is always less than the initial kinetic energy of the system.
True but not always:- In the case of inelastic collisions, few amounts of energy is converted into other forms of energy such as sound or in deformation. Thus final kinetic energy is always less as compared to initial kinetic energy. But in case of the explosion of a bomb final kinetic energy is greater than the initial kinetic energy
