Assertion $(A)$: In an elastic collision between two bodies,the relative speed of the bodies after collision is equal to the relative speed before the collision.
Reason $(R)$: In an elastic collision,the linear momentum of the system is conserved.

$A$ body of mass $8 \ kg$ moving with a certain velocity collides elastically with another body of mass $2 \ kg$ at rest. If $E$ is the initial kinetic energy of the moving mass,what will be the remaining kinetic energy of the moving mass after the collision (in $E$)?

$A$ body of mass $2\,kg$ makes an elastic collision with a second body of mass $m$ at rest and continues to move in the original direction but with one-fourth of its original speed. What is the mass of the second body? ................ $kg$

An object of mass $M$ is much heavier than another object of mass $m$. The heavy object moving with speed $v$ undergoes an elastic collision with the light object at rest. What will be the speed of the light object after the collision?

$A$ body $A$ of mass $m=0.1 \; kg$ has an initial velocity of $3 \hat{i} \; ms^{-1}$. It collides elastically with another body $B$ of the same mass which has an initial velocity of $5 \hat{j} \; ms^{-1}$. After the collision,$A$ moves with a velocity $\vec{v}_A = 4(\hat{i} + \hat{j}) \; ms^{-1}$. The energy of $B$ after the collision is written as $\frac{x}{10} \; J$. The value of $x$ is:
