When does the maximum energy transfer occur during an elastic collision?

Body $A$ of mass $4m$ moving with speed $u$ collides with another body $B$ of mass $2m$ at rest. The collision is head-on and elastic in nature. After the collision, the fraction of energy lost by the colliding body $A$ is:

In a scattering experiment,a particle of mass $2m$ collides with another particle of mass $m$,which is initially at rest. Assuming the collision to be perfectly elastic,the maximum angular deviation $\theta$ of the heavier particle,as shown in the figure,in radians is:

$A$ body of mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ makes a head-on collision with another body of mass $2m$ which is initially at rest. What is the ratio of the kinetic energy of the colliding body before and after the collision (in $: 1$)?

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $u$ makes an elastic one-dimensional collision with a stationary particle of mass $m$. They are in contact for a total time $T$. The contact force increases linearly from $0$ to $F_0$ in time $\frac{T}{4}$, remains constant for a further time $\frac{T}{2}$, and decreases linearly from $F_0$ to $0$ in the final time $\frac{T}{4}$, as shown in the graph. The magnitude of $F_0$ is:
