Questions  

Two identical balls “A” and “B” having velocities of 0.5 ms-1 and -0.3 ms-1 respectively collide elastically in one dimension. The velocities of B and  A after the collision respectively will be

a
-0.5 m s-1and 0.3 m s-1
b
0.5 m s-1and- 0.3 m s-1
c
-0.3 m s-1and 0.5 m s-1
d
0.3 m s-1and 0.5 m s-1

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Masses of the balls are same and collision is elastic, so their velocity will be interchanged after collision.∴vA=+uB=-0.3 m s-1and vB=uA=0.5 m s-1
