    $12 \ m/s, 6 \ m/s$
  • B
    $12 \ m/s, 24 \ m/s$

Consider an elastic collision of a particle of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $u$ with another particle of the same mass at rest. After the collision, the projectile and the struck particle move in directions making angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ respectively with the initial direction of motion. The sum of the angles, $\theta_1 + \theta_2$, is equal to: (in $^\circ$)

$A$ mass $m_1$ moves with a great velocity. It strikes another mass $m_2$ at rest in a head-on collision. It comes back along its path with low speed after the collision. Then:

$A$ body of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v$ collides head-on with another body of mass $2m$ at rest. If the coefficient of restitution between the two bodies is $e$,then the ratio of the velocities of the two bodies after collision is:
