Detailed Solution

In one dimensional collision if we consider masses are same 

Question Image

Then the velocities interchanged and their speeds are interchanged momentum also 

interchanged. In that the faster body slows down and the slower body speeds up when the  m1 = m2 = m.

 Because, head on elastic collision &m1=m2

v1=m1m2m1+m2u1+2m2m1+m2u2v2=2m1m1+m2u1+m2m1m1+m2u2

So we get their velocities, momenta and speeds are interchanged.

v1=u2v2=u1
