उत्तर
Explanation:
In a collision, if the motion of colliding particles before and after the collision is along the same line, the collision is said to be head-on or one-dimensional.
When two bodies of equal masses collide elastically, their velocities are interchanged.
Kinetic energy and linear momentum remain conserved Total kinetic energy of the system before the collision
= `1/2 mv^2 + 0 = 1/2 mv^2`
In (a), kinetic energy of the system after the collision.
`k_1 = 1/2 (2m) (v/2)^2 = 1/4 mv^2`
Hence this option is incorrect.
In (b), kinetic energy of the system after the collision.
`k_2 = 1/2 (m) (v)^2 = 1/2 mv^2`
Hence this option will be correct.
In (c), kinetic energy of the system after the collision.
`k_3 = 1/2 (3m) (v/3)^2 = 1/6 mv^2`
Hence this option is incorrect.
In (d), kinetic energy of the system after the collision.
`k_4 = 1/2 mv^2 + 1/2 m (v/2)^2 + 1/2 m(v/3)^2 = 49/72 mv^2`
We see that kinetic energy is conserved only in (b).

Two blocks M1 and M2 having equal mass are free to move on a horizontal frictionless surface. M2 is attached to a massless spring as shown in figure. Iniially M2 is at rest and M1 is moving toward M2 with speed v and collides head-on with M2.
- While spring is fully compressed all the KE of M1 is stored as PE of spring.
- While spring is fully compressed the system momentum is not conserved, though final momentum is equal to initial momentum.
- If spring is massless, the final state of the M1 is state of rest.
- If the surface on which blocks are moving has friction, then collision cannot be elastic.
