In an inelastic collision, the final kinetic energy is:

AMore than initial
BEqual to initial
CLess than initial
DLike the initial
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Less than initial
1. Some kinetic energy is lost in an inelastic collision. 2. The final kinetic energy is always less than the initial. 3. So the correct answer is less than initial. _Source: syllabus Physics Part I, Ch 6 'Work, Energy and Power'_
