Work Energy and Power - Result Question 62
65. Two equal masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ moving along the same straight line with velocities $+3 m / s$ and $-5 m / s$ respectively, collide elastically. Their velocities after the collision will be respectively.
[1998]
(a) $-3 m / s &+5 m / s$
(b) $+4 m / s$ for both
(c) $-4 m / s &+4 m / s$
(d) $-5 m / s &+3 m / s$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 65. (d)
Solution:
- (d) In elastic collision, the velocities get inter changed if the colliding objects have equal masses.
