$A$ smooth sphere $A$ is moving on a frictionless horizontal plane with an angular speed $\omega$ and its center of mass has a linear velocity $v$. It undergoes an elastic collision with an identical sphere $B$,which is initially at rest. After the collision,their angular speeds are $\omega_A$ and $\omega_B$ respectively. Neglecting friction,which of the following is true?

  • A
    $\omega_A < \omega_B$
  • B
    $\omega_A = \omega_B$
  • C
    $\omega_A = \omega$
  • D
    $\omega = \omega_B$

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 a head-on elastic collision with another body $Q$ having mass $m$ initially at rest. If $m << M$,body $Q$ will have a maximum speed equal to $2u$ after the collision.
Reason $R$: During an 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:
