    Momentum is conserved,

    Kinetic energy isn't conserved,

    Total energy is conserved,

    A part or all the mechanical energy are converted to other forms of energy.

    Explanation:

    There are two types of collision namely:

    1. Elastic collision

    2. Inelastic collision

    Elastic collision is the type of collision in which the momentum of the system and the kinetic energy are both conserved.

    Inelastic collision is the type of collision in which the momentum of the system is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved.
