Answer carefully, with reasons :
$(a)$ In an elastic collision of two billiard balls, is the total kinetic energy conserved during the short time of collision of the balls (i.e. when they are in contact) ?
$(b)$ Is the total linear momentum conserved during the short time of an elastic collision of two balls ?
$(c)$ What are the answers to $(a)$ and $(b)$ for an inelastic collision ?
$(d)$ If the potential energy of two billiard balls depends only on the separation distance between their centres, is the collision elastic or inelastic ?
(Note, we are talking here of potential energy corresponding to the force during collision, not gravitational potential energy).
