Practice question
Question
A 1kg ball at 10m/s collides elastically with a stationary 2kg ball. What is the speed of the 2kg ball after collision?
Explanation
For elastic collision, momentum and kinetic energy conserved: m1v1+m2v2=m1v1'+m2v2' and ½m1v1²+... per NCERT. Solving gives velocities matching 6 m/s. Inelastic loses energy. So option A is correct.
