$Assertion$ : 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.

  • A
    If both $Assertion$ and $Reason$ are correct and the $Reason$ is a correct explanation of the $Assertion$.
  • B
    If both $Assertion$ and $Reason$ are correct but $Reason$ is not a correct explanation of the $Assertion$.
  • C
    If the $Assertion$ is correct but $Reason$ is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the $Assertion$ and $Reason$ are incorrect.

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct answer:
$A$. In an elastic collision,if a body suffers a head-on collision with another of the same mass at rest,then the first body comes to rest while the other starts moving with the velocity of the first one.
$B$. Two bodies of equal mass suffering a head-on elastic collision merely exchange their velocities.

$A$ particle of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $\vec{V}$ makes a head-on elastic collision with another particle of the same mass initially at rest. The velocity of the first particle after the collision will be:
