The bob $A$ of a simple pendulum is released when the string makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical. It hits another bob $B$ of the same material and same mass kept at rest on the table. If the collision is elastic,what happens after the collision?

  • A
    Both $A$ and $B$ rise to the same height.
  • B
    Both $A$ and $B$ come to rest at $B$.
  • C
    Both $A$ and $B$ move with the same velocity of $A$.
  • D
    $A$ comes to rest and $B$ moves with the velocity of $A$.

It is found that if a neutron suffers an elastic collinear collision with deuterium at rest,the fractional loss of its energy is $P_d$; while for its similar collision with a carbon nucleus at rest,the fractional loss of energy is $P_c$. The values of $P_d$ and $P_c$ are respectively:

$Assertion$ : If collision occurs between two elastic bodies,their kinetic energy decreases during the time of collision.
$Reason$ : During collision,intermolecular space decreases and hence elastic potential energy increases.

The bob $A$ of a simple pendulum is released when the string makes an angle of $45^o$ with the vertical. It hits another bob $B$ of the same material and same mass kept at rest on the table. If the collision is elastic,then

$A$ mass $m_1$ moves with a great velocity. It strikes another mass $m_2$ at rest in a head-on collision. It comes back along its path with low speed after the collision. Then:
