The bob $A$ of a simple pendulum is released when the string makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the vertical. It hits another bob $B$ of the same material and same mass kept at rest on the table. If the collision is elastic,what happens after the collision?

  • A
    Both $A$ and $B$ rise to the same height.
  • B
    Both $A$ and $B$ come to rest at $B$.
  • C
    Both $A$ and $B$ move with the same velocity of $A$.
  • D
    $A$ comes to rest and $B$ moves with the velocity of $A$.

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?

$A$ ball hits the floor and rebounds. For this elastic collision case,which of the following is true?

$A$ ball of mass $1 \ kg$ moving along the $X$-direction collides elastically with a stationary ball of mass $m$.
