$I$. The initial kinetic energy is equal to the final kinetic energy of the system.
$II$. The linear momentum is conserved.
$III$. The kinetic energy during $\Delta t$ (the collision time) is not conserved.

  • A
    $II$ and $III$ only
  • B
    $I$ and $III$ only
  • C
    $I, II$ and $III$
  • D
    $I$ and $II$ only
