$A$ ball hits the floor and rebounds. For this elastic collision case,which of the following is true?

$STATEMENT-1$: In an elastic collision between two bodies, the relative speed of the bodies after collision is equal to the relative speed before the collision. Because
$STATEMENT-2$: In an elastic collision, the linear momentum of the system is conserved.

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:

The bob of a simple pendulum (mass $m$ and length $l$) is dropped from a horizontal position. It strikes a block of the same mass $m$ placed on a horizontal frictionless table. The collision is elastic. The kinetic energy of the block after the collision will be
