A metal ball of mass 2 kg moving with speed of 36km/h is having a collision with a stationary ball of mass 3kg. If after collision, both the balls move together, the loss in kinetic energy due to collision is
80 J
40 J
60 J
160 J
As we discussed in concept
If only conservative forces act on a system, total mechnical energy remains constant -
-
on putting the value we get 60J
Option 1)
80 J
Option is incorrect
Option 2)
40 J
Option is incorrect
Option 3)
60 J
Option is correct
Option 4)
160 J
Option is incorrect
