$A$ ball $A$ of mass $m$ moving along the positive $x$-direction with kinetic energy $K$ and momentum $p$ undergoes an elastic head-on collision with a stationary ball $B$ of mass $M$. After the collision,the ball $A$ moves along the negative $x$-direction with kinetic energy $K/9$. The final momentum of $B$ is:

  • A
    $p$
  • B
    $p/3$
  • C
    $4p/3$
  • D
    $4p$
