A body P while moving rectilinearly with velocity Vo collides directly with another body Q, which is at rest, as shown below. Assuming both the bodies have the same mass and the collision is elastic, the velocities of the bodies after the collisions, measured positive towards right, are Vo- P (a) Vp = -Vo/2, Vo = Vo/2 (b) Vp= Vo/2, Vo=Vo/2 (c) Vp = 0, Vo = Vo/2 (d) Vp = 0, VQ = Vo A body P while moving rectilinearly with velocity Vo collides directly with another body Q, which is at rest, as shown below.
