Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.Assertion A: Body ‘P’ having mass M moving with speed ‘u’ has head-on collision elastically with another body ‘Q’ having mass ‘m’ initially at rest. If m << M, body ‘Q’ will have a maximum speed equal to ‘2u’ after collision.Reason R: During elastic collision, the momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved.In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
