On a frictionless surface,a block of mass $M$ moving at speed $V$ collides elastically with another block of same mass $M$ which is initially at rest. After collision,the first block moves at an angle $\theta$ to its initial direction and has a speed $\frac{V}{3}$. The second block's speed after the collision is:

  • A
    $\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}V$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}V$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{4}V$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}}V$

$A$ steel sphere of radius $1.2 \ cm$ collides with a second steel sphere at rest. If the collision is elastic and after the collision the first sphere continues to move in its initial direction with a velocity of $\frac{7}{9}$ times its initial velocity,then the radius of the second sphere is (in $cm$)

$A$ body of mass $30 \ kg$ moving with a velocity $20 \ ms^{-1}$ undergoes a one-dimensional elastic collision with another ball of the same mass moving in the opposite direction with a velocity of $30 \ ms^{-1}$. After the collision,the velocities of the first and second bodies respectively are:

$A$ moving body with a mass $m_1$ and velocity $u$ strikes a stationary body of mass $m_2$. The masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ should be in the ratio $\frac{m_1}{m_2}$,so as to decrease the velocity of the first body to $\frac{2u}{3}$ and give a velocity of $v$ to $m_2$,assuming a perfectly elastic impact. Then,the ratio $\frac{m_1}{m_2}$ is

$Assertion$ : In an elastic collision of two billiard balls,the total kinetic energy is conserved during the short time of oscillation of the balls (i.e.,when they are in contact).
$Reason$ : Energy spent against friction does not follow the law of conservation of energy.

When two bodies collide elastically,then
