In elastic collision of identical bodies velocity interchanged in common normal directional and  velocity of the bodies remains unchanged along common tangent directions.

Question Image

Component of velocity of A along common normal is vcos600 and this velocity of A after collision with B is interchanged. Hence A moves along vsin600 which is normal to common normal
