$A$ smooth sphere of mass $M$ moving with velocity $u$ directly collides elastically with another sphere of mass $m$ at rest. After collision,their final velocities are $V$ and $v$ respectively. The value of $v$ is

  • A
    $\frac{2uM}{m}$
  • B
    $\frac{2um}{M}$
  • C
    $\frac{2u}{1 + \frac{m}{M}}$
  • D
    $\frac{2u}{1 + \frac{M}{m}}$

$A$ car of mass $400 \ kg$ is moving with a speed of $72 \ km/h$. It collides with a truck of mass $4000 \ kg$ moving in the same direction with a speed of $9 \ km/h$. After the collision,the car rebounds with a speed of $18 \ km/h$. Find the speed of the truck after the collision in $km/h$.

Two billiard balls undergo a head-on collision. Ball $1$ is twice as heavy as ball $2$. Initially,ball $1$ moves with a speed $v$ towards ball $2$ which is at rest. Immediately after the collision,ball $1$ travels at a speed of $v/3$ in the same direction. What type of collision has occurred?
