Which of the following potential energy curves in the figure cannot possibly describe the elastic collision of two billiard balls? Here $r$ is the distance between the centres of the balls.

$A$ ball of mass $m$ moving with speed $v$ collides elastically with an identical stationary ball which is initially at rest. After collision,the first ball moves at an angle $\theta$ to its initial direction and has speed $(v/3)$. The second ball moves in a straight line after the collision. Then,the speed of the second ball after the collision is:
