elastic collision

In physics, a collision between two or more bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the bodies is conserved (remains constant); none is converted into any other form of energy. The molecules of a gas may be considered to collide elastically, but large objects may not because some of their kinetic energy will be converted on collision to heat and sound, or used to deform the object.
