Consider the following statements A and B identify the correct choice in the given answers
A) In a one-dimensional perfectly elastic collision between two moving bodies of equal masses, the bodies exchange their velocities after the collision
B) If a lighter body at rest suffers head-on and perfectly elastic collision with a very heavy body moving with a certain velocity, after the collision both travel with same velocity
A) In a one-dimensional perfectly elastic collision between two moving bodies of equal masses, the bodies exchange their velocities after the collision
B) If a lighter body at rest suffers head-on and perfectly elastic collision with a very heavy body moving with a certain velocity, after the collision both travel with same velocity
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
A is correct and B is wrong
Option C is correct. Statement A is correct because in a perfectly elastic collision between equal masses, velocities are exchanged. Statement B is wrong because the lighter body will rebound with approximately the same speed in the opposite direction, while the heavier body's velocity remains almost unchanged.
