Question

In a perfectly inelastic collision, what is the coefficient of restitution (e)?

विकल्प

• e = 1

• e = 0

• e = 0.5

• e can be any value between 0 and 1

Answer 1

e = 0

Explanation:

A perfectly inelastic collision has e = 0 because the bodies stick together with no relative velocity of separation, resulting in maximum loss of kinetic energy.
