MHT CET Physics question
A block of mass 'm' moving on a frictionless surface at speed 'V' collides elastically with a block of same mass, initially at rest. Now the first block moves at an angle 'θ' with its initial direction and has speed 'V₁'. The speed of the second block after collision is [MHT-CET 2020]
Answer: (A)
Solution
For an elastic collision of equal masses (one at rest) the two velocities after collision are perpendicular, so and
