Derive the expressions for the velocities of two bodies after a one-dimensional elastic collision.

Two identical spheres $A$ and $B$ collide with two other identical spheres $C$ and $D$ with the same velocity $v$. What happens after the collision?

Assertion $(A)$: In an elastic collision of two billiard balls,both kinetic energy and linear momentum remain conserved.
Reason $(R)$: During the collision of the balls,as the collision is elastic,there is no exchange of energy. Therefore,both energy and momentum are conserved.
