A particle of mass m1 moves with velocity v1 and collides with another particle at rest of equal mass. The velocity of the second particle after the elastic collision is 

a
2v1
b
v1
c
-v1
d
0

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Given, mass, m1 = m2Velocity, u1 = v1 and u2 = 0Foe elastic collision, v2=m2 - m1m1 + m2 u2 + 2m1u1m1 + m2After putting the given values, we get                          v2=2m1v12m1⇒v2=v1
