Two pucks collide and the kinetic energy of the pair is the same before and after. This is:

AElastic
BPlastic
CErratic
DChaotic
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Elastic
1. Kinetic energy of the system did not drop. 2. That is the special case where it is kept. 3. The collision is elastic. _Source: OpenStax University Physics Volume 1, Chapter 9, Linear Momentum and Collisions._
