Problem 8.9: Is the collision elastic or inelastic?

Please wait for the animation to completely load.

A collision occurs between two pucks on a frictionless surface (position is given in meters and time is given in seconds). Is the collision elastic or inelastic? Note that the masses of the pucks are not necessarily the same. Restart.
