Two identical balls A and B having velocities of 0 . 5   m   s - 1 and - 0 . 3   m   s - 1 , respectively, collide elastically in one dimension. The velocities of B and A after the collision, respectively, will be
Options
- A- 0 . 5   m   s - 1 and 0 . 3   m   s - 1
- B0 . 5   m   s - 1 and - 0 . 3   m   s - 1
- C- 0 . 3   m   s - 1 and 0 . 5   m   s - 1
- D0 . 3   m   s - 1 and 0 . 5   m   s - 1
Correct answer
B. 0 . 5   m   s - 1 and - 0 . 3   m   s - 1
Step-by-step solution
They will exchange their velocities, so, v B = 0 . 5   m   s - 1 and v A = - 0 . 3   m   s - 1 .
