Based on your answer to the previous question (bullet embeds in block), what type of collision would you classify the bullet-block impact?

Respuesta :

Answer:

An inelastic collision.

Explanation:

When a bullet impacts on the block, and is embedded in the block, the bullet-block system moves away together, with a single velocity together. This is called "an inelastic collision"

In this type of collision, only the momentum of the system is conserved.
