Momentum and CollisionHard

Question

Consider an one dimensional elastic between a given incoming body A and B, initially at rest. The mas of B in comparison to the mas of A in order that B order that B should recoil with greater kinetic energy is

Options

A.mB >> mA
B.mB << mA
C.mB = mA
D.can′t say anything

Solution


Velocity of block B after collision v2 =
KE of block B = mBv22 = mB
Which is maximum if mA = mB
