Statement1: |
A particle strikes head-on with another stationary particle such that the first particle comes to rest after collision. The collision should necessarily be elastic |
Statement2: |
In elastic collision, there is no loss of momentum of the system of the particles |
a) |
Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is correct explanation for Statement 1 |
b) |
Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is not correct explanation for Statement 1 |
c) |
Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False |
d) |
Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True |

d) |
Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True |
(d) If the collision is elastic, then masses of both particles should be same. But if masses are different, then collision is inelastic. Further, momentum remains conserved in any kind of collision |
