Six identical balls are lined in a straight groove made on a horizontal frictionless surface as shown. Two similar balls each moving with a velocity $v$ collide elastically with the row of $6$ balls from the left. What will happen?

  • A
    One ball from the right rolls out with a speed $2v$ and the remaining balls will remain at rest.
  • B
    Two balls from the right roll out with speed $v$ each and the remaining balls will remain stationary.
  • C
    All the six balls in the row will roll out with speed $v/6$ each and the two colliding balls will come to rest.
  • D
    The colliding balls will come to rest and no ball rolls out from the right.
