A particle A suffers an elastic collision with a particle B which is at rest initially, then after the collision. Identify the incorrect statement.

If a particle ‘A’ suffers an elastic collision with a particle ‘B’ which is at rest initially, then after collision

*they can move in opposite direction

*they can move in perpendicular direction

*A can come to rest & B will start moving in original direction of motion of A

So, Option (2): ‘A’ can continue to move in original direction and B will remain at rest is a false statement
