Answer:
Initial K.E. of each
of two hydrogen atoms in ground state
KE of both H atoms before collision As the collision is inelastic, linear
momentum is conserved, but some K.E. is lost. If one H atom goes over to first
excited state and other remains in ground state, then their combined
K.E.
after collision
Reduction in combined
