* Elastic collisions: Kinetic energy is conserved. This means the total kinetic energy of the objects before the collision is equal to the total kinetic energy after the collision. Examples include collisions between billiard balls or atoms in an ideal gas.
* Inelastic collisions: Kinetic energy is not conserved. Some kinetic energy is lost during the collision, usually due to heat, sound, or deformation of the objects. Examples include a car crash or a ball of clay hitting a wall.
There is no known physical phenomenon that would result in a collision where kinetic energy is *increased*. This would violate the law of conservation of energy.
However, it's possible that you are thinking of a related concept:
* Exothermic reactions: These are chemical reactions that release energy, often as heat. If an exothermic reaction occurs during a collision, it can appear as if the kinetic energy of the objects has increased. However, the increase in kinetic energy comes from the chemical energy released, not from the collision itself.
To summarize: While there's no such thing as a "super elastic collision," it's possible to have collisions that appear to increase kinetic energy due to exothermic reactions. However, this is not a true increase in kinetic energy from the collision itself, but rather a transfer of energy from the chemical reaction.
