 A body of mass ${\mathrm{m}}_1$ moving with a velocity $3 {\mathrm{ms}}^{-1}$ collides elastically with another body  at rest of mass ${\mathrm{m}}_2$.

Two identical balls marked 2 and 3. in contact with each other and at rest on a horizontal frictionless table, are hit head-on by another identical ball marked 1 moving initially with a speed v as shown in the figure. Assume the collision is elastic, then mark out the correct statement.

1.   Ball 1 comes to rest and ball 2 and 3 moves with speed v

2.  Ball 1 and 2 come to rest and ball 3 moves with speed v

3   Each ball moves with speed

4.  None of the above

Two bodies having masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ and velocities $u_1$ and $u_2$ collide form a composite system. If $m_1$$u_1$ + $m_2$$u_2$ = 0 ($m_1$ $\ne$$m_2$), the velocity of composite system will be

1.  $u_1$ - $u_2$

4.  Zero

Three interacting particles of masses \(1.0~\text{kg}\), \(2.0~\text{kg}\) and \(4.0~\text{kg}\) have each a velocity of \(1~\text{ms}^{-1}\)${\mathrm{}}^{}$ magnitude along the positive direction of \(x\), \(y\) and \(z\)-axis respectively. Due to forces of interaction third particle stops and the velocity of second particle becomes \(2\hat j+\hat k~\text{ms}^{-1}\), the velocity of the first particle is:
1. \(4\hat i+\hat j+\hat k\)
2. \(\hat i-2\hat j+2\hat k\)
3. \(2\hat i+3\hat j-\hat k\)
4. \(-\hat i+3\hat j+\hat k\)

The bob A of a simple pendulum is released when the string makes an angle of 45 with the vertical. It hits another bob B of the same material and the same mass kept at rest on a table. If the collision is elastic

1.  Both A and B rise to the same height

2.  Both A and B come to rest at B

3.  Both A and B move with the same velocity of A

4.  A comes to rest and B moves with the velocity of A

A ball hits the floor and rebounds after an inelastic collision. In this case

2.  the mechanical energy of the ball remains the same in the collision

3.  the total momentum of the ball and the earth is conserved

4.  the total energy of the ball and the earth is conserved
