Which one of the following statements does not hold good when two balls of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ undergo elastic collision?

  • A
    When $m_1 < m_2$ and $m_2$ is at rest,there will be maximum transfer of momentum.
  • B
    When $m_1 > m_2$ and $m_2$ is at rest,after collision the ball of mass $m_2$ moves with four times the velocity of $m_1$.
  • C
    When $m_1 = m_2$ and $m_2$ is at rest,there will be maximum transfer of $K.E$.
  • D
    When the collision is oblique and $m_2$ is at rest with $m_1 = m_2$,after collision the balls move in opposite directions.

$A$ ball of mass $0.1 \ kg$ undergoes a head-on collision with a stationary ball of unknown mass. If the $0.1 \ kg$ ball rebounds with $1/3$ of its original speed,the mass of the second ball is .......... $kg$.

Two small particles of equal masses start moving in opposite directions from a point $A$ in a horizontal circular orbit. Their tangential velocities are $v$ and $2v$,respectively,as shown in the figure. Between collisions,the particles move with constant speeds. After making how many elastic collisions,other than that at $A$,will these two particles again reach the point $A$?

What percentage of kinetic energy of a moving particle is transferred to a stationary particle when it strikes the stationary particle of $5$ times its mass (in $\%$)? (Assume the collision to be head-on elastic collision)

$A$ smooth sphere $A$ moves on a frictionless horizontal surface with an angular velocity $\omega$ and a linear velocity $v$ of its center of mass. It undergoes an elastic collision with another identical sphere $B$ at rest. Neglecting friction everywhere,if the angular speeds after the collision are $\omega_A$ and $\omega_B$ respectively,then:

$A$ body of mass $m$ having an initial velocity $v$,makes a head-on collision with a stationary body of mass $M$. After the collision,the body of mass $m$ comes to rest and only the body having mass $M$ moves. This will happen only when:
