Consider the following statements 𝐴 and 𝐵 and identify the correct answer III. In an elastic collision, if a body suffers a head on collision with another of same mass at rest, the first body comes to rest while the other starts moving with the velocity of the first one IV. Two bodies of equal mass suffering a head on elastic collision merely exchange their velocities

Question: Consider the following statements 𝐴 and 𝐵 and identify the correct answer III. In an elastic collision, if a body suffers a head on collision with another of same mass at rest, the first body comes to rest while the other starts moving with the velocity of the first one IV. Two bodies of equal mass suffering a head on elastic collision merely exchange their velocities

(A) Both A and B are true

(B) Both A and B are false

(C) A is true and B is false

(D) A is false but B is true

Answer: Option (A)

Solution:

Consider the following statements 𝐴 and 𝐵 and identify the correct answer III. In an elastic collision, if a body suffers a head on collision with another of same mass at rest, the first body comes to rest while the other starts moving with the velocity of the first one IV. Two bodies of equal mass suffering a head on elastic collision merely exchange their velocities
