What happens in terms of energy when a moving car hits a parked car, causing the parked car to move?

When a moving car hits a parked car, causing the parked car to move, the type of collision is elastic collision. An elastic collision is when two bodies collide and separates after collision conserving the total kinetic energy before and after collision.

ANSWER:

The moving car transfers kinetic energy to the parked car.

EXPLANATION:

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion and can be transferred between objects and transformed into other kinds of energy.
