  • A
    $v$
  • B
    $2v$
  • C
    $v/2$
  • D

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

$A$ ball initially at rest is hit by another identical ball moving with some velocity as shown. Find the angle $\theta_2$ if the surface is without friction and the collision is perfectly elastic. $......^{\circ}$

$A$ smooth sphere $A$ of mass $m$ collides elastically with an identical sphere $B$ at rest. The velocity of $A$ before collision is $8 \ m/s$ in a direction making $60^{\circ}$ with the line of centers at the time of impact.
$(i)$ The sphere $A$ comes to rest after collision.
$(ii)$ The sphere $B$ will move with a speed of $8 \ m/s$ after collision.
$(iii)$ The directions of motion of $A$ and $B$ after collision are at right angles.
$(iv)$ The speed of $B$ after collision is $4 \ m/s$.

As shown in the figure,a pendulum $A$ is released from an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the vertical and strikes a pendulum $B$ of equal mass. After the collision,to what height (in $m$) will pendulum $A$ rise? Neglect the size of the pendulum and assume the collision is perfectly elastic.
