$A$ ball of mass $2 \,kg$ collides with another ball of mass $M$ at rest. If the collision is elastic and after the collision, the first ball moves with $\frac{1}{3}$ of its initial velocity in the same direction, then the mass of the second ball is: (in $\,kg$)

  • A
    $2.5$
  • B
    $3.5$
  • C
    $3.0$
  • D

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct answer:
$A$. In an elastic collision,if a body suffers a head-on collision with another of the same mass at rest,then the first body comes to rest while the other starts moving with the velocity of the first one.
$B$. Two bodies of equal mass suffering a head-on elastic collision merely exchange their velocities.
